Speak Up, Save a Child! 2018 Blue Ribbon Campaign to Prevent Child Abuse in Jefferson County
Started in 1989, the Blue Ribbon Campaign is used throughout the United States as a way to bring communities together to protect children. We are asking you to “Speak Up and Save a Child.” This is a call for the adult community to take an active role in protecting the children of Jefferson County from child abuse. Everybody holds a piece of the puzzle in preventing child abuse. You can “Speak Up and Save a Child” by: • Alerting authorities immediately if you suspect a child is at risk of abuse • Taking Darkness to Light’s Stewards of Children® training and joining more than one million adults who are trained to recognize, report, and prevent child sexual abuse • Donating to MountainStar Family Relief Nursery at mtstar.org or to KIDS Center at kidscenter.org • Talking to children about their bodies and what they can do if someone is making them feel uncomfortable • Talking to other adults about child abuse prevention in your neighborhood and community Child abuse happens every day in Central Oregon. Let’s give kids the same voice we’re giving women. #KidsToo
