National Child Abuse Prevention Month & Blue Ribbon Days 2017

Mt. Hope Family Center recognizes National Child Abuse Prevention Month with Blue Ribbon Days, a series of fundraising events to raise awareness of our work with traumatized children and families. For over 37 years, Mt. Hope Family Center has been helping families and children who have experienced abuse, neglect, violence and trauma.

All types of information about child abuse and what you can do to prevent it can be found on the 2017 National Child Abuse Prevention Month website.  The Children’s Bureau within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, funds the National Child Abuse Prevention Month initiative each April on the Child Welfare Information Gateway website.

Upcoming Fundraising events:

Sunday, April 2, 2017

Join us on Sunday, April 2, from 2 to 5pm at Painting with a Purpose to benefit the Center.

The event is being held at the Henrietta Painting with a Twist location, 3159-3259 Winton Road South.  There will be great snacks, drinks and a silent auction featuring local businesses.

You don’t need to know how to paint–just have fun with us!
