Picture of Joyce ThomasIt is a honor to serve as the President and CEO of the Center for Child Protection and Family Support, and I want to thank you for your interest and support to our organzation.  We have come to know that without early and effective identification and interventions to childhood trauma, health and mental health disorders can persist and lead to a downward spiral of emotional problems that have long lasting implications.  For over two and a half decades, our day-to-day experiences have taught us that untreated mental health problems can rob a child of a productive life, and families are stressed child is having difficulties.  It is for these reasons that we focus on the prevention of child abuse and neglect, and we support families by offering parent education and skills development.  We view it as critical to help children; we must also strengthen parent/child bonding, improve communications, and help parents/caregivers manage many environmental challenges.  The programs of the Center are vital to communities, and your support is vital to our future.
