Staff Report

Jane Hermes, executive director of the Family Nurturing Center of Northern Kentucky, presented Bishop John Iffert with a thank-you gift, Aug. 26, for the Diocese of Covington’s participation in the Light Up Blue campaign last April. April is Child Abuse Awareness Month, and blue is the color for Child Abuse Awareness. Last April, the Family Nurturing Center encouraged businesses, faith communities and individuals to show their dedication to ending child abuse by displaying blue ribbons, blue pinwheels and blue lights. At the Diocesan Curia, St. Mary’s Park was bathed in blue lights. Through education, counseling and training, the Family Nurturing Center is committed to ending the cycle of child abuse by promoting individual well-being and healthy family relationships.
