Plumas Children’s Council works to help prevent child abuse and neglect in Plumas
County through child-centered activities and by providing information and resources to the public. The Council generally hosts the Children’s Fair each May along with other activities during Child Abuse Prevention Month in April. Due to COVID-19, the Council was not able to do its usual activities this year but instead provided Activity Bags for children in June and now this contest for the holidays. The Council is hopeful it will be able to return to normal activities in 2022. If you are interested in joining the Children’s Council, please contact Suzan Mah at [email protected].
