Prevent Child Abuse Iowa (PCA Iowa) is a leading organization dedicated to preventing child abuse in the state of Iowa. Since 1975, they have been advocating, raising awareness, and providing assistance to ensure safe and nurturing environments for children. With partnerships in every county throughout Iowa, PCA Iowa manages state and federal grant programs that support community groups in delivering essential services to families. Their mission is to prioritize the well-being of children and promote a community effort in protecting and nurturing the next generation.
As the only statewide organization exclusively focused on child abuse prevention, PCA Iowa works closely with county-level Prevention Councils comprised of dedicated volunteers. These councils offer a range of services tailored to the needs of children and families, including early childhood home visiting, parent education, sexual abuse prevention education, youth development, and community engagement efforts. Through training, education, funding, outreach, and resources, PCA Iowa supports the work of these councils, emphasizing that child abuse prevention is a collective responsibility and that every child deserves a safe and happy childhood.
