Marysville proclaims April 2025 for assault-prevention and child-abuse-prevention; Casa de Esperanza recognized for local services
Summary
The Marysville City Council proclaimed April 2025 as both assault-prevention month and child-abuse-prevention month and presented the proclamations to Casa de Esperanza, which recently opened a local office offering free services to survivors.
Marysville Mayor Chris Branscomb read proclamations at the council's brief meeting declaring April 2025 as both "****** assault prevention month" and "child abuse prevention month" in the city of Marysville.
The proclamations, read by Mayor Chris Branscomb, call on residents to "actively participate in raising awareness, supporting survivors, and taking action to end ****** assault in our community" and urge the public to "be proactive in recognizing the signs of child abuse, supporting prevention programs, and ensuring a safe and healthy environment for every child in our community." The mayor said the city is "committed to providing a safe environment for all, where all individuals are respected and free from harm."
The council presented the proclamations to a representative of Casa de Esperanza. "So my name is Pacu. I'm the program director at Casa de Esperanza," the speaker said, adding that the agency "serve[s] victims and survivors of domestic violence, ****** assault, child abuse and human Center in Palouseau County for over 40 years," and that Casa de Esperanza has "till recently" opened a business office in Marysville. The speaker said all services are free to any victims or survivors who reach out.
No formal council action was required for the proclamations. The presentations were followed by the meeting's routine business and announcements about upcoming community events.
