OF
CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
In the Matter of declaring the )
Month of May as MISSING CHILDREN'S ) RESOLUTION NO. 89/248
MONTH in Contra Costa County )
It is estimated that over one million children are reported
missing in this country each year. This statistic reflects our
society's need for a greater awareness regarding child
abduction.
We owe it to our children to become informed and to protect
them by heightening the sensitivity of the general public toward
stranger and parental abductions.
Our county has been shocked by the recent disappearances of
three young Bay Area citizens and is therefore highly aware of
the tragedy this represents to our entire population.
The proclamation of MISSING CHILDREN'S MONTH gives us a chance
to display the American creativity and compassion that is
necessary to meet the challenge of this critical problem.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Supervisors that
the Month of May is declared MISSING CHILDREN'S MONTH in Contra
Costa County and that each and every citizen will dedicate his
and her efforts to prevent child abduction and to aid in the
recovery of all missing children.
PASSED AND ADOPTED ON April 25, 1989 by a unanimous vote of the
members of the Board present.
