What can you do in ten seconds? We can shift gears or water a plant. We can hear or tell a bad joke. In ten seconds, we can change our minds, and after doing so, say a prayer of thanks.
When we walk into a room, in that time, we can register the pain in someone’s eyes and begin to provide comfort. We can praise and honor someone who deserves it.
We can also commit to reporting child abuse. A report is made every ten seconds. On July 21, take the pledge to be the person to make a difference in a child’s life.
Most importantly, be someone prepared to report when a child trusts you enough and tells you they are experiencing abuse. Ten seconds can change a child’s life.
HOW TO OBSERVE
Be someone who changes a child’s life for the good. Take the pledge below on July 21st to report child abuse. Project Be Someone provides five steps to prepare you:
• Learn the facts
• Minimize opportunity
• Talk about it
• Know the signs
• React responsibly
Join the conversation using #BeSomeoneDay and share it on social media.
