π Last November, we celebrated the National Children’s Month with the theme “Break the Prevalence, End the Violence: Protecting Children, Creating a Safe Philippines!” The month-long celebration aimed to raise awareness on the prevalence and impact of violence against children (VAC) and advocated for the implementation of stronger measures to prevent and address VAC.
