Theme

The theme of 2023's campaign was "Community Support Strengthens Families.”

We invite you to use our resources, including:

 

Every day in April and beyond, we posted daily tips on our Facebook page showing what a supportive community looks like from the perspectives of parents, youth, and service providers. We also promoted awareness activities and educational opportunities (like #WearBlue4Kids selfie days, a Children's Memorial Flag Raising, and more). You're invited to share anything you find on our Facebook page on your own individual or organizational page. (Or, choose from the entire set of Supportive Community images in English and Spanish.) 

Preventing child abuse and protecting children is a community responsibility, with everyone needing to take action to provide support to the families and children around us. Taking action can be as simple as offering a helping hand to a parent you know.

Activities

We also promoted awareness activities and educational opportunities such as #WearBlue4Kids Friday selfie days, pinwheel plantings in two cities, a Santa Barbara County Board resolutionweekly webinars for practitioners, a kids art contest for youth, a Children's Memorial Flag Raising, and more.
