Greetings to everyone in the Virgin Islands, region and the world. I join in solidarity with the rest of the world to bring a message of support and protection for our children. The month of April is Child Abuse Prevention and Awareness Month and Autism Awareness Month.
Minister for Health and Social Development, Honourable Carvin Malone has said that action must be taken to protect the physical, mental and emotional health of the Territory’s children.
The proceeds raised by partners during Child Abuse Prevention month activities were handed over to the British Virgin Islands’ Social Development Department.
The Social Development Department hosted a Family Movie Night on April 27 to bring the curtains down on activities to observe Child Abuse Prevention and Awareness Month.
