April has been designated as National Child Abuse Prevention Month, with the aim of raising awareness about the issue and showing support to survivors of child abuse and neglect. Severin emphasized the importance of recognizing the signs of child abuse, stating, "Knowing the signs, such as sudden changes in behavior and unexplained injuries, can be a powerful tool to combat child abuse."

During this month, various initiatives and campaigns will be organized to educate the public about child abuse prevention and provide resources for victims. To learn more about the signs of child abuse and access support resources, individuals are encouraged to visit the website provided by Nationwide Children's Hospital.

It is important to note that the mentioned website is a state-sponsored and funded site, and therefore, campaign-related posts, content, and comments are prohibited by ethics regulations.

As National Child Abuse Prevention Month unfolds, efforts will continue to be made to protect children and ensure their safety and well-being.
