On April 8, 1993, the Child Abuse Prevention Council of Contra Costa County is presenting the
14th Annual Warrington Stokes Awards for significant contributions to the field of child abuse
prevention in Contra Costa County. The Awards are named in honor of the former Chief of
Program Planning for the county, Warrington Stokes. They are given in four categories:
Community Service, Direct Service Practitioner, Child Protective Service Worker, and Special
Achievement.
Although the Awards themselves are given to only a handful of individuals each year, the Awards
Ceremony is a time for acknowledgement of the commitment and compassion of the countless
individuals and agencies that provide critically needed services to the children and families of
our county, despite limited resources and increasing demands for services. We are all fortunate
to be able to benefit from their continuing service on behalf of children and families.
Contra Costa County acknowledges the dedication and hard work of the many individuals and
agencies working in the field of Children's and Family Services and appreciates their continuing
commitment to provide essential child abuse prevention, intervention, and treatment, as well as
supportive family services, in communities throughout our county.
