PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGN
SLO-CAP puts together a yearly “Public Awareness
Campaign” to educate the public about one aspect of
child abuse in particular and child abuse in general.
This campaign includes distribution of posters and advertisement
in the local newspapers to get the child abuse prevention
message out to the public.
Some of the previous campaigns have included “Imagine
a World Without Child Abuse - Are We There Yet?”,“Listen
With Your Heart”, “Words Hurt,” “Domestic
Violence is Child Abuse,” “Babies Are Fragile…Never
Shake a Baby,” “Never Hurt a Child…Never
Never Never,” and “Beat The Addiction, Not Your
Child.”
Poster designs for the campaigns are the result of a contest
among the students of a design class at Cal Poly. The students
learn by doing and SLO-CAP receives a valuable product.
