Welcome to our sixth annual Cork & Barrel wine event series! We are truly grateful for your support, and for that of the wineries, chefs, restaurants, donors, and volunteers who make these events possible. An extra special welcome and thanks to Sonoma County wineries and guest chefs who have traveled to be with us this year. Through your attendance tonight, you are making a tremendous difference for children and families facing abuse throughout Central Oregon. Thanks to our generous sponsors, all of your donations will go directly to child abuse evaluations, family support and advocacy, therapy on-site, and to helping adults become trained to prevent child abuse. So please, join us in raising a glass - and your bid - to help fund the future for children and families who are impacted by child abuse in our community.
Cheers!

To ensure that our services are there for every child when they need us, KIDS Center engaged in a thorough strategic planning process with a focus on enhancing organizational performance to better serve our most important clientele: children and families. Key outcomes include:
WINE
Currently, KIDS Center provides training and technical assistance to seven counties and Warm Springs as part of our statewide regional Child Abuse Multidisciplinary Intervention (CAMI) Fund grant. A key training hosted by KIDS Center and covered by these funds, Drug Exposed Children, provided an overview of issues related to substance exposure to children, and covered the challenges related to the legalization of marijuana. This vital assistance ensures that staff from child abuse intervention centers (CAICs), law enforcement, medical providers, and child welfare agencies receive the tools they need to provide the best intervention, assessment, and investigation of child abuse cases.
KIDS CENTER
While nationwide trends in child abuse rates are debated, here in Central Oregon, we not only continue to see growing demand for child abuse evaluations, but also for our mental health, advocacy, and family support services. In addition to the growing need for child abuse support services, KIDS Center has experienced increased enrollment in our prevention education and training courses. Over the past year, KIDS Center served a total of 3,830 children, youth, and adults with critical services and trainings.

2018 FEATURED WINE REGION Sonoma County Sonoma County is located an hour north of San Francisco, and is noted for its heritage of artisan winemaking. Founded in 1944, Sonoma County Vintners represents more than 200 wineries and affiliated businesses throughout the Sonoma County. The history of winemaking in Sonoma began back in 1812 when Russian colonists planted grapes on the coast of Sonoma County and history is continually being made by innovative vintners. Today, Sonoma County has 17 unique AVAs and more than 60 grape varieties are planted in this region. Sonoma County is heavily influenced by its close proximity to the Pacific Coast shoreline, and its cool nights and temperate days create the perfect conditions to draw in layers of oceanic fog to chill Sonoma’s warm interior valleys. Local growers will agree that Sonoma County is one of the world’s most ideal growing regions.
