Programs for Peaceful Living is bringing attention to Child Abuse Prevention Month through blue pinwheels that can be seen in April in both Bingen and Goldendale. The Washington State Department of Children, Youth, and Families’ conducts the Pinwheels for Prevention Campaign. Last year, the group distributed around 15,000 pinwheels across the state as a reminder that it is not enough to respond to child abuse and neglect, and we also must build and support strong families through community engagement, programs, and policies. Programs for Peaceful Living operates as Klickitat County’s Crime Victims Service Center and supports the campaign locally. Community members are encouraged to wear blue in April and help share information and resources. To request blue pinwheels or receive local support, contact local advocates in Klickitat County during business hours by calling Programs for Peaceful Living in Bingen at 509-493-1533 or in Goldendale at 509-773-6100. If you need local support for a child abuse or neglect issue after hours, call the 24-hour crisis line at (844) 493-1709.
