How Wristbands Help Raising Child Abuse Awareness?

Help End Child Abuse with Awareness Bracelets

Custom designed silicone bracelets are the best way to spread your message for any cause. Child abuse is heartbreaking and, unfortunately, more prevalent than most people realize. Statistics indicate that nearly 700,000 incidents of child abuse occur each year. The worst cases make the news, but many more children that we hear about are suffering every day.

Experts suggest that a key to preventing child abuse is to have resources available for families at risk of abuse. One way to get the word out about these programs, and gain funding for them, is through the use of custom child abuse awareness bands.

April is Child Abuse Prevention Awareness month, and dark blue is the accepted color for child abuse awareness. National Child Abuse Awareness Month began in 1983, following acts in Congress to protect children from abuse. Child abuse and neglect awareness activities are promoted across the country during April of each year.

In 1989, the Blue Ribbon Campaign to Prevent Child Abuse began as a Virginia grandmother's tribute to her grandson who died as a result of abuse. She tied a blue ribbon to the antenna of her car as a way to remember him and to alert her community to the tragedy of child abuse. The Blue Ribbon Campaign has since expanded across the country to pay tribute to children who have died as a result of child abuse and in support of efforts to prevent abuse.
