Can you see the child?

We're launching the Challenge, a special campaign designed to raise awareness about the children hiding in plain sight in our communities, classrooms, clinics, and caseloads.

Here's how to take part:
📸 Hide yourself in plain sight (blend into a wall, curtains, plants, toys, anything around you!)
📷 Snap a photo
📲 Share it and challenge others to find you
👥 Tag 3 other people to take part next

Use and we'll be sharing our favourite submissions!

Because when we learn to see them, we can finally help them. 💙

Be aware of the grooming tactics of child predators!

People who groom often targets kids who feel isolated, offering constant attention and approval while pushing others away. That’s a warning sign, not a safe relationship.

We’re proud to partner with the National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) this month to help adults spot grooming early and keep kids safe.

Learn more, get resources, and share this with your network: https://www.nationalchildrensalliance.org/iyb/
