Project Kindness Resource Page

April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month. We feel one way to honor the children who have experienced abuse is to promote protecting children, focusing on positive parenting, and keeping kids safe. Throughout April MWR Battle Creek will be sharing resources, statistics, and fun things to do with the children in your life.
Due to popular demand, we have brought back Project Kindness. We are asking you to share pictures and images of how you and the children in your life show each other kindness. Some examples: fly kites, baking, plant a garden, draw funny animals, at the playground, sports or athletics, there are so many ways we can celebrate positive parenting and the things we do to show how much you care. Whatever it is that you do to spend time together creating memories, share your pictures with us.
