We all have a role.
It matters who you are. Each of us has a role to play to support families and strengthen our community.
Sometimes we need help. Sometimes we give help.
Know your role! Find out how you can help.
Businesses
Businesses have a wonderful capacity to give and an amazing network of contacts.
Seniors
At this time in your life, you have an opportunity to give your time. Get involved with kids!
Family Members
The first ones parents turn to for help! You can be kids’ and parents’ greatest ally.
Parents
You’re doing a hard job. An important job. Sometimes we all need a little help.
Neighbors
The nearest helping hand. Literally.
Physically speaking.
Faith Communities
Chances to connect are built in to what you do. Take advantage of those and help connect people.
Healthcare Providers
Parents and families trust you to let them know what to expect and to offer help when needed.
Media
We need you to routinely shine a light on challenges and successes in our community.
Educators
You have a lot of opportunities to understand the situations children and families face.
First Responders
Families in crisis often see you first. You’re in the position where you can show compassion and respond to needs.
Friends
Friends are the ones we lean on when we’re having a hard time. They’re also there to keep us from going crazy.
Youth + Teens
You’re there for your peers. Sometimes a simple conversation can go a long way.
Nonprofit + Civic Groups
You are constantly working to support our community and to make a difference.
Youth Activity Leaders
You’re there to have fun with kids, but you also get to model behaviors for children and their families.
Childcare Providers
You get to demonstrate what healthy behaviors look like to children and their families.
All of us. Together.
Preventing child abuse and neglect can’t be done by just a few people. It takes ALL of us working together.
Thank you to Lane County’s K(NO)W MORE campaign, which inspired us and to NAPCAN’s Play Your Part campaign, which was the original effort.
