Child Advocates Unite!

Word Day For The Prevention Of Child Abuse

Howdy, all. Did you know that today, Sunday, November 19, is World Day for the Prevention of Child Abuse? Are you familiar with
Yes I Can? Yes I Can is short for "Yes I Can Break The Cycle." I sure like that idea. I've had Yes I Can linked on my www.survivorscanthrive.com site for over a year, under my Resources "Advocacy and Prevention" page, and they are, indeed, a wonderful child advocacy and child abuse prevention organization. You can find out all about World Day at www.yesican.org/worldday.html. I just finished up my anual trick-or-treat donation to Unicef, but I can also get involved in World Day through them. To go directly to their web page where you can "Say Yes" for children, go to www.unicef.org/say_yes. Other children's advocacy and child abuse prevention links are, as I said, on my website resource page here.

Hi Marj.

Just got back this weekend from vacation and had an interesting discovery that I am a multiple with four other people in me. My friends tell me that they knew all along I was a multiple, they my others are very protective of me. But I am doing good with this and so is Dewy.
