OC CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION COUNCIL NEEDS INVITATION

Child Abuse Prevention Council for Orange County, California

http://www.theraisefoundation.org
Last year, The Raise Foundation continued to make a significant change in the lives of children in Orange County through our direct services and programs. For example:
• Since July 1, 2009, the beginning of our fiscal year, we have distributed 4 tons of food through various family resource centers.
• We have provided basic needs items (blankets, diapers, towels, hygiene products, etc.) to 913 households representing 3,600 family members.
• Hundreds of parents received parent training though our parent education program.
• Hundreds will benefit from the new Resources in Motion Mobile Family Resource center sponsored by Kaiser Permanente.

All of these efforts reflect our motto:
“Preventing child abuse by strengthening families.”
And, while we have had many successes, we still need to work tirelessly to help the thousands living in Orange County who still desperately need our help and guidance.
