There are two ways [from my perspective] to really make a difference with Take 25. One, you can go to Take 25's website and get ideas for a single event, or a series of events, log them into the Take 25 website and they'll send you distribution materials [bookmarks, tip sheets, magnets...], and then have your event! It's a great feeling to contribute to the community, and it's easier than pie.
The second way to make a difference with Take 25 is to build consensus
- that Take 25 is important.
- that the message and information contained in those distribution materials is necessary, and
- that not only should an organization sponsor or host an event, they should consider implementing changes into their existing policies that reinforce the safety of their community
- at every level available to the planner - church, community center, school, employer, city, or state.
That is what Safe Child Week is about. There's not a state or community in the country that doesn't need some child security education - I am very sure of that. You can bring it to the community you live in.
