NCCAFV's AMERICAN CAMPAIGN for PREVENTION
of CHILD ABUSE & FAMILY VIOLENCE
A 501(c)(3) nongovernmental, nonprofit USA organization.
Our Thirty-Sixth Year of Voluntary Service to America's Children and Families
MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to provide prevention services to every generational stage of the family by bringing together community and national stakeholders, volunteers and professionals to prevent intergenerational family violence: child abuse and neglect, spouse/partner abuse, and elder abuse and neglect.
An Urgent Message
The COVID-19 outbreak is putting extra pressure on us at the American Campaign for Prevention of Child Abuse and Family Violence because of the surge in frequency and severity of child abuse, domestic spouse/partner abuse and elder abuse and neglect in a family's enforced lockdown, alongside a family’s often acute drop in financial resources.
We at the National Council’s American Prevention Campaign are seeing exactly this: higher demand
for our prevention efforts even while losing 35–40 per cent of our donation income during this lengthening pandemic.
We have had to shift to even more direct service online to those experiencing family violence at home,
an online service we were already deploying. We have a range of existing digital platforms to help efficiently deliver immediate support and referrals online for vulnerable individuals and families needing immediate, direct local services, support advice and intervention assistance.
We have pivoted to work on COVID-19’s social and relational impact (both physical and emotional) on family well-being across our nation. Some staff with families at home cannot take part in this effort and have voluntarily furloughed to further ensure the American Prevention Campaign’s financial sustainability during this period. All remaining volunteer staff are working from home. Thank you for your support during this critically disruptive, destructive and deathly period for everyone.

Did you know that Domestic Violence (spouse/partner abuse) is reported in more than 50% of official protective service investigations into child abuse and neglect?
Too many families experience abuse -- child abuse, spouse/partner abuse, elder abuse -- in one or more of its many forms: emotional, physical, verbal, sexual, economic. It is expressed through violence, intimidation, abusive language, controlling behavior and exploitation..
More than ever before, people are aware of the painful and often long lasting effects of abusive behavior within the family. No longer does a family member need to suffer silently — help is available NOW.
Assistance for individuals and entire families seeking help is now available from law enforcement, public and private social service agencies, churches, shelters and the legal and medical communities.
NCCAFV provides this website to assist, inform and link victims with those individuals and agencies who volunteer to serve in this national safety network.
Because our entirely volunteer leadership staff works probono, 95% of your
contribution goes directly to program services and only 5% is spent for management and fundraising support services. The small percentage allocated to support services is a reliable indication that we are committed to using your generous income tax deductible support efficiently and effectively. Federal EIN #95-4356014.
Thank you for your generous support.
