We wear blue for Child Abuse Prevention Month to stand as a visible reminder that every child deserves to grow up safe, supported, and free from harm. The color blue represents hope, the hope that by raising awareness, speaking up, and supporting families in our community, we can prevent abuse before it ever begins. Wearing blue is our way of honoring survivors, supporting those still struggling, and showing commitment to building a future where all children are protected, valued, and given the chance to thrive.
