The Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors heard two proclamation requests during the meeting and adopted resolutions recognizing child‑abuse prevention efforts and National Crime Victims Rights Week.

Karen Fox, introduced herself as executive director of the local children and families commission and asked the board to adopt an April proclamation for child abuse prevention awareness and related resources. Mackenzie Bowles, project support coordinator, described outreach to elementary schools and community displays of children’s art that will be used as part of awareness activities.

Separately, a representative of the Siskiyou County District Attorney's Office said next week is National Crime Victims Rights Week and asked the board to read and adopt a proclamation. The district attorney's office representative read language emphasizing kinship, survivor support and trauma‑informed care. "This proclamation reaffirms our dedication to building connections, standing in kinship with survivors, and creating a future where healing and hope are within reach for everyone," the reader said.

The board adopted the resolutions by roll call. The transcript records supervisors voting "Aye" to adopt the victims' rights proclamation; the child‑abuse prevention materials and yard‑sign outreach were accepted and staff were directed to distribute materials to schools and community partners.

No additional funding or programmatic directives were recorded for either proclamation at the meeting; community groups indicated they would return to present more detailed reports to the board in future meetings.
