PACT, a non-profit, community-based child abuse prevention program, was founded in 1978, and is one of the first comprehensive child abuse prevention programs in the Southeastern United States. Utilizing strong community ties and a large committed volunteer core, PACT has grown into a Family Resource Center that provides services to over 10,000 persons throughout Morgan County, Alabama, each year. PACT has been recognized at the local, state and national levels for excellence in programming, effective use of volunteers and community support and involvement.

Membership Drive
PACT's Membership Drive begins in October. Will you help a child in need in Morgan County? Will you give $40 to protect 1 child from the devastating effects of child abuse? Last year we served over 12,000 children through our programs. Given our budget, that’s an average of only $40 per child. We desperately need your help!
Think of all the special children in your life. Won't you sponsor a child in honor of each of them?
Online Donation OR Send checks to P.O. Box 1247, Decatur, AL 35602. We also accept Mastercard and VISA.
