Child Abuse Awareness

Wednesday was the start of Child Abuse Awareness Month!!! There were pinwheels all over the square in Lisbon. Each pinwheel represented a child saved. If you know a child is being harmed in ANY way, it is your duty to speak up!! Detective Dave Talbert from the Salem Police Department spoke of many times when something happens, a bystander will tell him that they wished they had spoke up. 2 of our 3 child murders are a result of abuse!! Do NOT keep silent! A child's life may depend on it!

A special thanks to the following people who helped make this a great success.
