Fighters Against Child Abuse shifts community focus to prevention
After meeting with multiple child abuse agencies and being advised where FACA can help most in the greater Carson City community, it has been decided that the new focus for Fighters Against Child Abuse in 2013 will be in the area of prevention.
That starts with empowering and educating individuals on Proper CPS Reporting of suspected child abuse. Fighters Against Child Abuse has partnered with West Coast World Martial Arts in Minden to help with its mentoring program for abused, bullied and at risk youth. This is done through free Martial Arts Classes offered to children that are referred to FACA through different organizations and agencies.
Martial Arts is used to rebuild self esteem in abused and bullied children, as well as refocus negative energy caused by child trauma. This partnership will enable the FACA Team to focus on helping as many children as possible.
Currently it is believed that 99 children are abused daily in Nevada.
