SPARE the CHILD Part Three: SPANKING to POSITIVE PARENTING

The Mahoney Family Fund is honored to present one of the nation’s most respected experts on the prevention of child abuse, Stacie LeBlanc. Her research and evidence-based data about the harms of hitting children, for punishment, is real and overwhelming.

Pam LaRoque, CBA Youth Development Program Coordinator, will be on hand to answer questions about educational programs in place at CBA and specific challenges they face. Stacie LeBlanc, JD, MEd, will present information about “No-Hit Zones”. She is the President of the American Professional Society on the Abuse of Children (APSAC), the co-founder of The UP Institute and a CAST instructor at Tulane University.
