1 in 3 three families suffer from diaper need in normal times, now with #coronavirus the need will be greater. Pinwheel Place is coordinating with our #community to provide #diapers to our local families! Please help us provide support by #Donating here https://t.co/8peDlOpNnC
Our Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are not our fault. We didn’t have power over when or why they happened. But we do have the power to show ourselves grace and choose how we move forward. We have the power to decide how the stories of our numbers turn out. @mynumberstory

This is the reason EVERY law enforcement officer in the country needs to be trained on ACEs and trauma-informed policing. This child just witnessed a violent confrontation between her parents. These are the moments when we MUST help children feel safe. Not pepper spray them.

Pinwheel Place believes in this approach. We need to reach families upstream and keep kids out of the river. Our program works on doing just that. Take a moment to watch this video.
COVID-19 has made life difficult for everyone, especially families. Instability, stress & isolation increase the risk of child abuse/neglect. Check out this informative @COSKidsMatthews video about Upstream Thinking and Adverse Childhood Experiences. https://t.co/8u4gvsJrJd
