The Family Justice Center and it's onsite partners want the community to know that child abuse and maltreatment is serious and can even be fatal if help is not sought.

The organization launched the Blue Ribbon Campaign to help people visualize how many child abuse victims there are in Lubbock.

McCracken County deputies said a local doctor's office notified the department Friday of injuries to the child that were severe enough to require hospitalization.

And, one-third of all 12- to 17-year-olds have experienced two or more adverse childhood incidents.

"We ask you to stand up and be that change".

Chief Standridge stresses that "we can no longer ignore this and expect it's going to go away" and hopes the community will get behind him to tackle the growing issue of child abuse. "Our safe school institute will train school administrators, teachers, nurses, counselors, and resource officer on how to report recognize and disclose child abuse, neglect, and human trafficking", Crime Stoppers CEO Rania Mankarious said. It's done by praying for the children and families who have been directly and indirectly impacted by child abuse.

Some advocates have proposed that the punishment for sex offenders be increased to the death penalty, but the organizers of Saturday's rally said they are opposed to capital punishment. If a child's life is in danger, call 911.

Schmidt says Kansans should look out for all signs of child abuse. Every hour of every day, there is allegation of child abuse in Tennessee. "It also will inform people how to go about reporting abuse, and it's especially meant for caregivers who might be in a situation where they may see signs of abuse".
