We want to jump up and down and shout from the rooftops…
It’s been 2 YEARS since we launched Pediatric Safety!!
Back in 2009, our goal was to create a place where everyone who cares about children’s health and safety could get together to stay informed on the topics that have the potential to affect them and the children in their care. Since our launch, we’ve had the fortune to meet and work with some wonderful folks – a pediatrician, a nurse and child safety expert, a family psychologist, a water safety specialist, a dentist, an environmental safety lawyer, an EMS safety specialist and a special needs parenting expert – all of whom volunteered their time to help make this site a community where you can find answers and hopefully give answers to others when they need them. At it’s heart, it’s a place where people can support each other – the village needed to raise a child. If we’ve been able to accomplish even a little of that, then this has been 2 years well spent
So where does this “Giveaway” thing come in??? We want to celebrate…and we’re hoping you’ll join us AND maybe help save a child’s life all at the same time! 🙂
The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, (NCMEC), is a private, nonprofit organization created over 25 years ago to serve as the nation’s resource on the issues of missing and sexually exploited children.. As of 1984, police could enter information about stolen cars, stolen guns, and even stolen horses into the FBI’s national crime computer – but not stolen children. That is no longer the case. Thanks to NCMEC, more missing children come home safely today and more is being done today to protect children than anytime in the nation’s history. And in light of the recent tragedy in New York where a young boy was abducted and killed after getting lost on his way home from camp, we’d like to lend them a hand…

I *believe* I’m already a member, it gave me an error code when I went to double check.
You’re definitely already a member, so thanks for letting me know. Can you tell me what you did that gave you an error code (I want to make sure to test it the same way). Thanks!
Stefanie
ps. Your contest entry registered, so at least we’re good there! 🙂
