In honor of Child Abuse Prevention Month, the Mesa County Board of County Commissioners planted a Pinwheel Garden in front of the old Mesa County Courthouse, 544 Rood Ave.
The Board believes our community can help children thrive by supporting families before they reach a crisis — prevention remains the best defense.
If you suspect child abuse or neglect, call the Mesa County child abuse and neglect hotline at 970-242-1211 or 1-844-CO-4-KIDS (1-844-264-5437) to reach someone who can help you 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
All children deserve to live in a safe and nurturing environment free from abuse and neglect.
Below are pictures from the event.
