Show Your Support!: Friday, April 24 is Children's Memorial Flag Day

 

Now more than ever, the safety and security of our nation's children is paramount.  The Children's Memorial Flag was created in honor of National Child Abuse & Neglect Prevention Month. 

Flown on the fourth Friday in April  on April 24 this year — the Children’s Memorial Flag honors each lost child and serves as a symbol for the protection of children and young people from all forms of violence. The flag raises public awareness about the continuing problem of violence against children. 

Please join the Tulare County Child Abuse Prevention Council efforts to make children a national priority by helping to make every day a peaceful, healthy day for America’s children. The centerpiece is simple: a red flag depicting blue, paper-doll-like figures of children holding hands. In the center, the white chalk outline of a missing child symbolizes the children lost to violence. 

Created by a 16-year-old student in Alameda County, California, the Children’s Memorial Flag honors each lost child and raises public awareness about the continuing problem of violence against children. Join the nearly 300 organizations, in over 100 cities, and participants in all 50 states that support Children’s Memorial Flag Day. 

Fly (Post on your social media platforms)  your flag on April 24—or all month long—and support CAPCs efforts to protect every child from violence and harm.
