April Marks Child Abuse Prevention Month
Activities Highlight Efforts to Protect Children and Strengthen Families
April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month and Pro Se Services, NFP. is partnering with the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services, Prevent Child Abuse Illinois, and several organizations throughout Illinois to raise awareness about the role everyone can play in valuing children and strengthening families.
Thousands of Illinois children suffer abuse and neglect every year. In FY 2014, there were 92,904 children reported as possible victims of abuse and/or neglect. The Illinois Department of Children and Family Services found that 29,926 children were maltreated, and of those, 94 children died as a result of abuse and neglect.
The statistics can be overwhelming, but they are reminders that no one can afford to look the other way. Everyone can find a way to make a difference so that children reach their potential. The 2014 Pro Se Services Abuse Prevention month theme, Confronting Child Abuse and Neglect while Strengthening Families, promotes the need for meaningful involvement by parents, concerned individuals, communities, and organizations.
Child Abuse Prevention Month activities across the City of Chicago will include: i* The tying of blue ribbon and planting of pinwheel "gardens" by organizations, schools and businesses throughout Chicago, including the Gateway Garden at Lake Street/Wacker on State Street. The BLUE RIBBON and PINWHEEL is the new symbol for child abuse prevention and reflects childhood hope, health and happiness.
* WEAR SOMETHING BLUE on April 1st, to raise awareness for City's most vulnerable citizens our children. Advocates for children throughout Illinois will show support by wearing blue, which is the official color of child abuse and neglect prevention.
