National Child Abuse Prevention Month recognizes the importance of communities working together to help identify and prevent child maltreatment. The month is signified by the color blue so you may see our colleagues in blue on Friday and blue pinwheels on our campus to raise awareness of this important issue.

We encourage everyone to be aware and watchful of signs of neglect or abuse in children: https://dcfs.illinois.gov/safe-kids/prevention/howtotell.html
