Childhelp® was featured on KTVK 3TV Phoenix to discuss how #summer can be a dangerous time for kids and how to keep them safe. "Not to be cliche, but children are our future..."

Last night Findlay Toyota Flagstaff participated in “25 Men Who Think They Can Cook” 👨🍳 A wonderful event to support Childhelp® in their mission to end child abuse and support resources. We served up about 400 wings, met with the amazing founders (Sara O'Meara and Yvonne Fedderson), and auctioned off TWO Backyard BBQs to help raise funds! Randy Waites absolutely crushed it, and MAN, can he cook! And shoutout to our amazing Marketing Assistant, Maggie Nguyen, for capturing the moments of the evening! See y’all next year!
"We don't want them to relive their trauma, so multiple interviews, multiple exams, we don't do that. We want to be able to do all of that one time in one spot." 🕊️ Read more from Childhelp Forensic interview specialist, Jennifer Ingalls about dealing with cases here: https://bit.ly/3xBWS7g

The growing down approach is something I’ve been strongly considering for our nonprofit, Childhelp® Ideas like a “playful ball pit to let your inner child out to play” has been buzzing around in my mind for the past few months, and others too. What do you think? Should we explore more growing down playful engagements in the coming year?

Do brands need to be more playful? We are seeing more and more experiences that leverage what I call ‘Growing Down’. It’s a direct response to what we’re sold in our adolescent years as ‘adulthood’. All I heard as a teenager was ‘Grow Up’ but we now live in a time where we’re actually questioning what that means and frankly being an adult is not all it’s cracked up to be. The rise of play-driven experiences is testament to a change towards a more playful and creatively explorative adult life and given that over 33% of Gen Z’s show symptoms of a mental health disorder perhaps this shift is for the better. So it begs the question, given ‘experience design’ on the whole is moving in this direction, should brands start to explore what ‘Growing Down’ looks like to them? What are your thoughts on this subject? Below: Nike Play Research Lab To coincide with the global ‘Play New’ campaign, Nike invited all athletes to see Nike Innovation through a new lens: Kid Vision. The Nike Play Research Lab (N.P.R.L.) was launched at Nike’s House of Innovation with a takeover dedicated to empowering and inspiring kids to move. N.P.R.L. put kids in the control seat to Innovate, Play and Create together.

Just last week, the hotline received a chat from 10-year-old Sarah, stating she was scared her dad was going to kill her mom. “He was beating her for an hour and now I don’t know where they are! I’m hiding under a desk in my room.” The Childhelp counselor encouraged Sarah to call 911, while she stayed online. The 911 operator told Sarah the police were on their way and would arrive in about 10 minutes. While they waited, the counselor talked to Sarah about her favorite foods, movies she can’t wait to see and the silliest pet name she’s ever heard. The counselor also did a breathing exercise with Sarah to help her stay calm. The police arrived and Sarah thanked the counselor for her help. Sarah’s story serves as a stark reminder of the critical role the Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline plays in safeguarding children and families. Her cry for help underscores the urgent need for resources and support to intervene before tragedy strikes.
