Child Abuse Awareness Month – April

In 1989, Bonnie Finney of Virginia tied a blue ribbon to the antenna of her van. When asked about it, she told the tragic story of the abuse and resulting death of her grandson. Since then, millions of people across the country have participated in Blue Ribbon campaigns to remind people to prevent child abuse in their communities.

Here are some ideas:
  • Promote the blue ribbon campaign by distributing blue ribbon pins or other promotional material to elected officials and community leaders in Clackamas County.
  • Recruit area restaurants to participate in Child Abuse Prevention Month by donating a portion of their proceeds to the Children’s Center
  • Work with your local school district on an awareness drive including presentations and training on child abuse intervention and prevention by Children’s Center staff

Hope & Healing Breakfast

September 2010

The Children’s Center’s celebrated its 6th annual Hope & Healing Breakfast on September 24th, 2009. John Kroger, Oregon Attorney General, joined us as our featured speaker with returning guest speaker, Steve Dunn of KATU Channel 2 News.

Funds raised at the Hope & Healing Breakfast open a door to healing for up to 100 of the abused children who will depend on the Children’s Center for help during the next 12 months.

If you are interested in participating at the 2010 breakfast as a sponsor, table host, speaker or guest, please contact Shauna Lugar at shauna@childrenscenter.cc.
