DREAMCATCHERS MISSING CHILDREN’S DIVISION

Too Many Are Missing…And they are still among us. 2,300 Americans go missing on a daily basis: Both children and adults. And yet so many go unrecognized, unreported, and forgotten before their communities know they’re gone. Dreamcatchers new Missing Children’s Division is focused on bringing each of these cases to the forefront and helping locate them!!

DREAMCATCHERS PARENTING SUPPORT GROUP:

Networking for Prevention–Being a parent is probably one of the toughest jobs that we ever do. Today’s families face many obstacles and we hope we can help! This community group is available here through the networking site, Facebook. The group invites members to speak out and inquire about sensitive subjects or stressful topics such as abuse, teen sex, drug use, discipline, or child rearing. Discussions are open, questions are welcomed, and participation is encouraged.

 

DREAMCATCHERS NETWORKING FOR PREVENTION:
Educating the public and preventing neglect and abuse of children seems almost impossible if we don’t first find the most appropriate way to respond to the abuse that is already happening to innocent children around the globe. The tragedy of the problem is that innocent children are too often overlooked, ignored and shunned because too many do not have prior child abuse education or the proper tools to handle or report incidents of abuse and neglect to the proper authorities. Research has shown by suppressing horrific forms of abuse and neglect as a child, when left ignored or untreated, can become a life-long struggle. These struggles can take a toll on the individual affected by abuse and neglect, causing ongoing personal tragedies and effects that can last a life-time. Dreamcatchers for Abused Children was created to support parents, caregivers, professionals, paramedics, first responders, teachers, physicians, scholars and students interested in stopping this Worldwide epidemic, educating and creating public awareness on child abuse education and strategies for prevention. Through your support Dreamcatchers for Abused Children can help you gain the core knowledge and key skills to educate yourself and protect children against  pedophiles,  predators and abusers. Evidence based strategies for prevention of child abuse is the key factor to the protection of children; your, mine and ours. If you support this key aspect of our goal, Dreamcatchers for Abused Children encourages you to support our new Networking 4 Prevention campaign. By simply networking with Dreamcatchers for Abused Children, you can educate yourself, protect the innocent children and possibly save a child’s life.

 

DREAMCATCHERS HOLIDAY HELPER PROGRAM:

Dreamcatchers works to assist less fortunate families during the holiday season and throughout the year.  Over the years, our organization has raised money, gifts and donations for families in need.  Our fund raising efforts have enabled us to supply many families in need throughout the State of Michigan. Our main focus is on Easter and Christmas. This program is encouraging to children, enlightening the out-take of a safe and happy childhood. Over all results are extremely successful.

 

DREAMCATCHERS BACK-TO-SCHOOL PROGRAM:

DFAC holds an annual Back-to-School Supplies Drive to collect and distribute school supplies; pencils, pens, paper, back-packs, colored pencils, highlighters, rulers, glue sticks, hand sanitizer, baby wipes, pencil sharpeners, white out, pencil cases, lined paper, notebooks, binders and folders. These items are then distributed for abused, neglected and/or low-income children throughout local Michigan urban and suburban school systems.
