WAKULLA COUNTY, FL — April is National Child Abuse Prevention Awareness Month. Wakulla County neighbors came to Azalea Park on Wednesday morning to put up a display of pinwheels in honor of it.
"The pinwheel is a visual representation of happy childhoods. We want children to have nurtured and caring families, and so the pinwheels are planted in April so that communities see that we are supporting families and that we all have a common goal of nurtured childhoods for children," says Chesley Richardson, Executive Director of Prevent Child Abuse Florida.
The pinwheels can be seen on the Hudson Park side of Azalea Park from Crawfordville Highway.
