Child Abuse Prevention Month “Pass the Pinwheel” Campaign
Child Abuse Prevention Month “Pass the Pinwheel” Campaign
April 2018
Research suggests that many people are already playing a role in preventing child abuse and creating great childhoods in their communities; they just don’t realize it. A study commissioned by Prevent Child Abuse America shows that only 27% of Americans report that they are engaged in prevention.
However, that same study showed that:• 80% of Americans reported donating goods, money or time to an organization supporting children and families,
• 70% reported volunteering with children through places of worship, schools and sports or academic clubs, and
• 56% provided mentorship to a child in their family, neighborhood or community.
The message from Prevent Child Abuse America in April 2018 will be, “You’re doing great things for children, keep it up!” Along those lines, Prevent Child Abuse Louisiana will encourage people to “pass the pinwheel” to someone who is having a positive impact on children. For instance, you can pass the pinwheel to your child’s teacher, your niece’s soccer coach or the local librarian.
The campaign will be chronicled on social media using the hashtag #passthepinwheel.
Let’s celebrate the good work being done to provide happy, healthy childhoods to all of Louisiana’s children!Date and Time
