💙 April is Child Abuse Prevention Month 💙

This month, we join the nation in raising awareness for Prevent Child Abuse Awareness & Prevention Month. It’s a time to promote safe, nurturing environments where all children can grow, learn, and thrive.

Healthy Families Nebraska Heartland is proud to play a vital role in prevention by supporting families through home‑based services, strengthening parent‑child relationships, and helping caregivers build the foundations for a healthy, positive future.

Together, we can create brighter, safer futures for every child 💙

Cold Weather Safety Tips ❄️

Cold days are here, but staying safe can still be easy and upbeat. Here’s how to keep warm and cozy:

Bundle up:
Dress in layers and don’t skip the basics—hat, gloves, and warm socks make a big difference.

Drive with care:
Give yourself extra time and keep an eye out for slick spots, especially on bridges and overpasses.

A small emergency kit in your car is always a smart move.

Keep it cozy at home:
Use space heaters safely (at least three feet from anything flammable), and never use ovens or grills to heat your home.

💕Bonus points for checking smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Look out for each other:
Check in on neighbors who may need help staying warm and bring pets inside—cold weather isn’t their favorite either.

Listen to your body:
Numb fingers, intense shivering, or confusion are signs it’s time to warm up fast and get help if needed.

Stay warm, stay safe, and enjoy the winter vibes.
