As we reflect on the past year, we have learned how to maximize resources enabling us to do the most good for children and families from each dollar we raise. Our community partners support effective programs that are truly life-changing. Dedicated professionals and volunteers work to reduce and someday end child abuse and neglect.
Resource cuts, brought on by our struggling economy, make your gifts more important than ever. During the past two years, 1,236 more children in Colorado suffered abuse and neglect than in previous years. Fatality rates for child abuse victims in Colorado are also on the rise. The suffering of so many children is a tragedy for our community, and we must work together to protect these children. However, there is hope. Children who have been abused or neglected are not beyond help--most children, with the support of their families, and, as needed, medical and mental health services, go on to lead productive lives.
During the last year, The Kempe Center provided direct services to nearly 800 children through prevention and intervention programs including the Child Protection Team, Child Trauma Program, Fostering Healthy Futures Program, Perpetration Prevention Program, State and Regional Team for Crimes Against Children (START), Training, Education and Consultation Program, and Access to Services for Parent Infant Relationship Enhancement (ASPIRE). Our staff also trained thousands of current and future professionals throughout the U.S. and around the world.
With the help of individual, community, foundation, government and corporate supporters, The Kempe Foundation raised more than $2.5 million to continue to support efforts to end child abuse.
Looking ahead to 2012, The Kempe Center will celebrate three huge milestones. First, the Center will have its 40th anniversary. The second milestone is the 50th anniversary of the publication of The Battered Child Syndrome. In 1962, Dr. C. Henry Kempe and his colleagues led the identification and recognition of child abuse with this defining paper. Additionally, the International Society for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (ISPCAN) will celebrate its 35th anniversary in 2012. Throughout 2012, we will celebrate these milestones with events and awareness activities.
The Kempe Center and Foundation are moving forward with the goal of helping more abused and neglected children. Under new leadership and with our vision for the future, we will expand our services and treat more children.
Your support of Kempe not only helps children today, but it will make an impact on children and families in the future. Help us break the generational cycle of abuse. Thank you for your ongoing support.
As we reflect on the past year, we are at once challenged and encouraged. We are challenged by the struggle to do a bit more with a bit less to prevent and treat child abuse and neglect, but we are encouraged by the progress we’ve made in helping children.
We never lose hope that we can help prevent child abuse and help children who need us. Our resolve helps us do more with less. In this time of shrinking budgets and demand for more services, we simply challenge ourselves to find ways to help more children and families recover from the trauma of abuse and neglect.
