Everyone has a role in preventing child abuse and neglect. Prevent Child Abuse Oregon has several opportunities for community involvement. You can learn about new opportunities in real time joining our email list or finding us social media- Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
See News for time sensitive opportunities to support PCAO. Otherwise, see below.
Advocate
Educate yourself about child abuse prevention and advocate for programs and policies that strengthen families and keep families safely together. Learn more.
Board of Directors & Special Committees
PCAO’s board includes 3 key committee’s where community members are invited to share their expertise and experience. Committee’s include:
Prevention Community Advisory Council
PCAO’s work is driven by the voices of their Prevention Community Advisory Council. The Community Advisory Council serves as an accessible avenue for people from diverse experiences and circumstances to share their gifts and make a meaningful contribution towards child abuse prevention work within the state.
Applications are rolling throughout the year depending on openings.
Voices for Prevention (More information coming soon)
PCAO seeks individuals from across the state to become official ambassadors for prevention in their communities, and to be engaged in the legislative process when policies or programs for kids are being discussed.
Volunteer
Internships
PCAO can host Highschool through Graduate level interns in many areas of study, depending on the supervision requirements for your program. This work is not just for those intending to be a social worker- small nonprofits require skillsets in media, marketing, and communications; policy and government affairs; business management and finance; human resources and fundraising. If you have a skillset and a passion, we likely can co-create a project that meets your needs and helps vulnerable families at the same time.
