The internet and social media are great at bringing people together, but not everyone needs to know where we are! Help keep kids safe online by protecting their privacy and location-be sure to turn location services off on your child's devices and only allow location access to necessary apps (such as family safety services like Life360). In addition, create a family rule that states no one will post where they have been on social media until after they have left-save those vacation pics for when you return home!

Did you know that only 1 in 10 children disclose their abuse and when they do disclose, it is usually to a trusted adult who is not their parent or caregiver? It takes COURAGE to disclose, and children need to know that there are SAFE adults in their lives who they can trust, who will believe them and get them help. You can help create that list of go-to trusted adults. Ask the children in your lives-who would they feel safe going to when something or someone makes them uncomfortable?

Do you REALLY know everyone you talk to online? The internet makes it easy to connect with just about anyone, but not everyone on the internet has good intentions. For kids especially, it is important to ensure that online interactions are being had with real-life friends only. Take some time to sit down with your child and go through their digital connections—help them verify who they are talking to so their online activities can remain healthy, fun, and SAFE!

Only 1 in 10 children disclose their abuse, which leave 9 others who need someone to speak up for them All it takes is one caring adult to notice a child needs help and to pick up the phone. YOU can be that caring adult and use your voice to get children the help they need. Learn the signs to look out for and how to make a report by going to our website or signing up for a Know & Tell training (https://njcainc.org/know-and-tell/).

This Veterans Day, we remember Deacon Ray Chimileski, founder of OPERATION CHILLOUT and a Russ Berrie Making a Difference Award honoree, whose vision and compassion continue to uplift veterans across New Jersey.

More than two decades ago, Ray learned that several homeless Vietnam veterans were living under a railroad trestle in Dover, NJ. When he saw the conditions firsthand, he launched Operation Chillout, an interfaith, volunteer-led effort to provide food, clothing, and support to people living without shelter.

One year after his passing, Ray’s mission lives on. Operation Chillout is now preparing for its 2025 Winter Homeless Outreach Campaign, working to fill and distribute 1,000 survival backpacks with warm winter clothing and essentials for veterans and others in need across New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania.

Ray believed in easing the burden of homelessness “one person at a time.” This Veterans Day, we honor his enduring legacy and the volunteers who continue to serve in his name. ❤️💙
