Child Abuse Prevention Month - April 2019

Pinwheels for Prevention is the state’s campaign to increase awareness of the important role everyone can play in promoting healthy child development and preventing child abuse and neglect. The campaign symbol, a blue and silver pinwheel, represents the great childhoods we want for all children. It is also symbolic – just as a little wind is necessary to make the pinwheel move, one caring adult in a child’s life can make a tremendous difference!

The campaign encourages government entities, faith and community organizations, businesses, and communities to be involved in activities that improve the health, safety, and well-being of all children and families in Florida. These efforts are key to making Florida a great place to live, go to school, work, and play!

Agencies are encouraged to plant a pinwheel garden to symbolize support for heathy child development and prevention of child abuse and neglect.
