#GoBlue
October is Child Abuse Prevention Month.
Your voice can change a child’s life.
Child Abuse is Preventable.
Did you know 1-in-3 Albertans experience some form of abuse before the age of 18? By staying informed, engaged, and using our voice, we can all play a part in creating safer communities for children and youth.
#GoBlue
On October 24, we wear blue to shine a light on child abuse, and to stand in solidarity with children, youth and families in our communities who are impacted by abuse.
Wear Blue to stand with the children and families affected by abuse
Light Up Your Community by setting your exterior ambient lights blue, lighting your hot tub blue, or putting out blue decorations

In The Community
This October, Luna is partnering with local businesses to make the #GoBlue campaign the biggest yet! Through these partnerships and throughout the month, we hope to raise important funds to support Luna’s programs and prevention strategy, raise awareness about the prevalence of child abuse, inform community members about how we can all work together to prevent child abuse, and ensure children and youth in our community are safe and thriving.
