News Around Town: April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month. Livable Meck understands that home isn’t always a safe place for children, and getting help can be especially difficult during extended times away from school. For those who need support, Livable Meck Partners Safe Alliance and Pat's Place Child Advocacy Center are still serving the community.  Safe Alliance's HOPE Hotline (980-771-4673) is staffed 24/7 and anonymous.

Parents rejoice! CMS student packets will NOT be available for pick up tomorrow (Friday, April 3). As we hear more we’ll update you.
