Sonora, CA – April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month and twelve local kid champions are being recognized.

Tuolumne Resiliency Coalition (TRC) describes its organization as a coalition of community members who oversee services for children and focus on child abuse prevention and neglect while striving to educate the community.
