Impact!
Children’s Trust Fund of Oregon
Salem police have seen a decline in child deaths.
"There has been tremendous progress made in educating parents about not shaking your child," Salem Police Lt. Steve Birr said. "Salem Hospital started mandating that all new parents watch a video on shaken-baby syndrome."
Impact!
• United Way of Mid-Willamette Valley
Giving a young woman and her two small kids a chance to start again after being left homeless with no money, shelter or food, and only the clothes on their backs.
Normally, the St. Vincent DePaul does not help with housing deposits; however, given the circumstances, they felt compelled to make an exception. Staff worked together to find and fund a small apartment, find household items, food and clothing to get the family started.
