Astor's Andy Kuntz, Deputy Director of Astor's Tilden Ave. facility in the Bronx, NY, spoke with News 12 The Bronx TV on the subject of child abuse prevention.
This segment spotlighted Astor's programs during National Child Abuse Prevention Month, in testament to the important role in the fight against child abuse that Astor plays in the community.
Mental health issues often play into the prevalence of child abuse because of the impulsive nature of child abuse, but also because of the frustration that tends to build up.

[Astor's] goal is to get to the root of the problem and pull the kids out of that dark place.
