Document has been reformatted to meet World Wide Web specifications.)                 A concurrent RESOLUTION   to recognize the important work done to combat the significant problem of child maltreatment, abuse, and neglect and to declare Wednesday, April 15, 2025, as Children's advocacy center day in South carolina.
  Whereas, over 380,000 children are served by Children's Advocacy Centers nationwide each year;
and   Whereas, in 2024, Children's Advocacy Centers throughout South Carolina served 13,784 child victims of abuse, providing victim advocacy and support services to them and their families.  This represents a three-percent increase in children served per year by Children's Advocacy Centers in South Carolina over 2023;
and   Whereas, although sexual abuse was the most common form of child maltreatment reported by children served at South Carolina Children's Advocacy Centers in 2024, victims also suffer year after year from physical abuse, neglect, drug endangerment, commercial sexual exploitation, and psychological maltreatment;
and   Whereas, Children's Advocacy Centers seek to model, promote, and deliver excellence in child abuse response and prevention through direct service, education, collaboration, and leadership;
and   Whereas, it is entirely appropriate for the South Carolina General Assembly to pause in its deliberations to underline the growing problem of child abuse and the serious impact its continued existence has on the citizens of South Carolina, as well as on those of the rest of the nation.  Now, therefore,   Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
  That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, recognize the important work done to combat the significant problem of child maltreatment, abuse, and neglect and declare Wednesday, April 15, 2025, as Children's Advocacy Center Day in South Carolina.
  Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Thomas Knapp, President and CEO, of the South Carolina Network of Children's Advocacy Centers.
