Children's Advocacy Center Celebrating Child Abuse Awareness Month

April is Child Abuse Awareness Month which means it is a big month for one local organization.
 
Judy Brucker is the Executive Director of the Children's Advocacy Centers and says is a time for them to bring the subject of Child Abuse to the attention of as many people as possible.
 
 
Between incidents like at Penn State and with Adrian Peterson in the NFL, the issue of child abuse has become more prominent in daily discussions in recent years and Brucker says that is a very good thing.
 
 
Brucker indicates the statistics for child abuse are astounding and feels if you talk with someone close to you, you might found out they were a victim.
 
 
Brucker indicates their office in Bloomington will be lining the downtown area with blue ribbons to promote Child Abuse Awareness Month.
