Join us at our April phlocking to recognize Child Abuse Prevention Month. Dress in BLUE to stand in solidarity with child abuse prevention efforts across the nation.
This month our fundraising will support the One Place Child Advocacy Center, a local 501c3 nonprofit that provides specialized evaluations for children who have been sexually and/or physically abused. Services include comprehensive medical evaluations, forensic interviews, advocacy, mental health therapy, education and resources, all under
one roof and provided by a supportive multidisciplinary team of highly trained professionals. All services to child victims and their supportive parents/caregivers are without cost to them. At the phlocking, we will distribute blue ribbons and share information about these important services. To learn more about One Place:
