About [Edit]
Prevent Child Abuse Missouri (PCAM) is a not-for-profit organization established in 1987 (as the Missouri Chapter to Prevent Child Abuse America) to prevent the abuse and neglect of children in our state through awareness, education, and intervention.
PCAM is a network of organizations and individuals committed to ending child abuse in Missouri. Through local and regional initiatives, we provide direct services to children and families throughout the state.
Our mission is to prevent child abuse in all its forms and to improve the quality of life for children, youth, and families through a comprehensive and collaborative statewide effort.
It is a Vision in which it becomes the norm for all parents and caregivers to seek and accept qualified support regarding the knowledge and skills required for effective parenting and child development; and for the general public to become educated and engaged in supporting the well-being of children.
It is a Vision of a time wherein the word "parent" is more than simply a noun (or 'title'), defining a particular individual; and instead, becomes a verb (or 'action'), describing the behaviors to be embraced by all individuals.
And it is a Vision wherein "preventing child abuse" no longer describes the cause we each support; but rather, begins to define the effect of everything that we do to help children and families.
