Pinwheels for Prevention

Throughout the year, the Children’s Advocacy Center of NEPA (CAC/NEPA) invites the community to engage in child abuse awareness and prevention education and events. On Friday, March 31st, CAC/NEPA staff and volunteers will plant over 500 pinwheels on the lawn of the Lackawanna County Courthouse to represent each child served by the child abuse intervention center in 2022.

During the month of April, participants from all over the world are encouraged to join in the mission to raise awareness for child abuse prevention by planting a pinwheel in the CAC’s Virtual Pinwheel Garden cacnepa.org/pinwheels. Planting a virtual pinwheel is a reminder that every child deserves a happy, safe, and healthy childhood.
