Protecting Childhoods: A Community Conversation

Childhoods are worth protecting—and prevention starts with us. This public forum, hosted by Darkness to Light, creates space for honest, informed conversations about child safety and prevention. Together, we’ll explore how to recognize risk, respond when concerns arise, and take practical steps to create safer environments for children. These conversations may be difficult—but they are also powerful. When adults show up with care and courage, prevention becomes possible.

This forum is educational—not a place for legal advice or crisis intervention.
