Exhibition about Child Abuse at The Fontana Center

The exhibition is part of a timely, new program developed to educate the general public about causes, identification, and reporting of child abuse:

A 45-minute guided tour of an interactive, multi-media exhibition at the Fontana Center :

  • describes the scope of the problem
  • details the development of legislation in child abuse
  • demonstrates how to recognize the signs and symptoms of child abuse
  • depicts the journey through healing
  • provides suggestions about what individuals can do to help prevent child abuse

The exhibit includes intriguing artworks created as part of therapy by victims of child maltreatment.

Participants meet with one of the Fontana Center Directors for a Q & A session and receive a Guide to Community Resources on the identification, reporting, and prevention of child abuse.

We invite you to come learn simple practical measures that can help prevent child abuse.
