October is Child Abuse Prevention Month, a time to focus on protecting children and supporting their well-being. It encourages communities to create safe environments, learn about prevention, and strengthen supports for children and families.

Throughout the month, Waypoints highlighted this important work through events at our Child and Youth Advocacy Center and by visiting local schools and community organizations. While our presentations on healthy relationships, consent, and bullying happen year-round, October provides an opportunity to shine a spotlight on these efforts, equipping children, youth, and community members with knowledge and tools to recognize, prevent, and respond to abuse.

This month, Waypoints has partnered with Central Alberta Child Advocacy Centre, Chinook Child & Youth Advocacy Centre, Zebra Child & Youth Advocacy Centre, Sanare Centre, The Bison Child & Youth Advocacy Centre, Caribou Child & Youth Centre, Luna Child & Youth Advocacy Centre, and Little Bear Child & Youth Advocacy Centre to share and amplify each other’s messages on social media in support of Child Abuse Prevention Month.​

We believe that by creating spaces where children’s voices are heard, experiences are validated, and support is accessible, we help communities reduce the risk of abuse and ensure children have the safety and guidance they need to grow and thrive.

Tonight is the final opportunity to see the Saline Creek Pedestrian Bridge illuminated in blue for Child Abuse Prevention Month. This initiative, in partnership with the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo, highlights our community-wide commitment to supporting the safety and well-being of children and youth.
