All kids have the right to be safe.
But
sometimes, parents and other adults can’t control how frustrated they get.
Sometimes those adults—even a mom or a dad—can take out their angry feelings
on kids.
If
an adult is hurting you in ways that are not okay, it is not your fault. If
an adult yells at you a lot, or hits you, or sends you to school every day
without a coat or a lunch, you can get help. You can call anytime, even if
it’s very late at night.
 | For Emergencies, call 911. Anytime you
feel in danger, it is an emergency. |
| Just to talk to someone, call (703)
838-0800 |
Please don't think your feelings or hurts are “nothing to worry about.” More
than 3 million kids are abused or neglected in the United States each year.
You are not alone.
The Scholarship Fund of Alexandria
Other adults can help the adults who
may be hurting you. If you need help, please call (703) 838-0800.
