April Diversity Message The month of April is a series of Holidays and Events important on a world-wide basis and to employees at our workplaces.National Child Abuse Prevention Month (U.S.) First designated in 1983, dedicated to supporting families, raising awareness and preventing child abuse.

National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month (U.S.) Supports an annual campaign to raise public awareness about sexual assault and to educate communities and individuals on how to prevent sexual violence. This is coordinated by the National Sexual Violence Resource Center working with the states and other organizations.
