Press Conference - April 3rd, 2008 Community leaders addressed the media at the Salt Lake County Children’s Justice Center to raise awareness about child abuse and to promote safety tips to keep children safe. "There are over 50 laws in Utah to protect our children from harm. We need everyone working together to accomplish this. It is a community problem and it will take a community effort to protect the kids." ~Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff "It's great to know that we have the Children’s Justice Center to stand up and make a difference for the children in our community. They say it takes a village to raise a child, but it takes a place like the Children’s Justice Center to make sure the children are protected." ~ Salt Lake County Mayor Peter Corroon

The program serves over 1,500 children annually who have been victims of abuse and crime. Children are empowered to have a voice so the involved agencies can provide protection and justice. Donations are vital to the success of the program. |
