At the Y, we are committed to ensuring every young person has the opportunity to grow, connect and thrive in a safe and nurturing environment. Today is the final day of 5 Days of Action, a week-long national campaign to increase awareness of child sexual abuse and empower and equip us all to prevent it.

You can take action by visiting a YMCA of Metropolitan Washington location to sign a Five Days of Action Pledge Card—a simple but powerful way to show your support in raising awareness and preventing child sexual abuse in our community.

When evaluating camps, sports and other activities for your child, do you know what questions to ask about abuse prevention? As parents, caregivers and trusted adults, we play a vital role in protecting children and teens from abuse. As we recognize 5 Days of Action with YMCAs across the country, you can take action and learn key questions to ask from Praesidium, the YMCA’s partner in child abuse prevention.
