VIENNA – Arrowleaf in Vienna will be wrapping up their Child Abuse Prevention Month activities this Friday with a 12-hour event on the square in Vienna.
First responders, human service providers, students, educators, and community members will continuously walk around the Courthouse Square in Vienna for 12 hours, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., to raise awareness about child abuse.
Officials will also be planting a pinwheel garden at 12:45 p.m. to raise awareness for child abuse prevention. The blue pinwheel is the national symbol for child abuse prevention.
