Erin, the Program Manager that oversees Child Advocacy and Prevention Programming stopped in my office yesterday to say that schools have been very responsive this year to scheduling prevention programs.
They scheduled more than 60 speeches for the last couple months of 2008 and she thinks the number of kids who went through prevention programs this year might be around 8,000! Thats massive!
Kudos to the teachers who take precious classroom time to host these sessions. Its got to be hard. My teacher friends can barely get regular curriculum done, adding this shows a great dedication on their part to the welfare of their students. The schools have always been gracious to us, we are proud to serve them.
And of course lets not forget the Community Foundation who made the funding of the programs possible and Jenna, our bubbly Prevention Coordinator, we're just sure she's the reason we keep getting invited back .
