About Us
"Unless someone
like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better.
It's not."
Dr. Suess
We understand parenting is difficult and we want
to offer tools to alleviate stress, answer questions, and help you
create a nurturing and healthy atmosphere for your child. Child safety
starts with education - anyone can be a good parent with the right
tools.
The death of Jovonie Ochoa, a four year old boy starved to death by his grandmother, shook our community to the core, and sparked me to form the Blue Ribbon Task Force. My vision is to combine local community leaders, organizations and volunteers to form a coalition to advocate for children, offer parental support, and educate the public about the prevention of child abuse and neglect.
Now, we are many members strong and our voices reach across the state
through billboards, posters, literature, radio and television ads,
and community events.
Our goal is to provide a haven for parents to get much needed support,
and ultimately develop a safe world for all children – free
from abuse and neglect.
Sincerely,
Senator Carlos I. Uresti
