Hillsborough County

Thank you to all of our Safe Places in Hillsborough County. ?? Have you ever noticed the yellow sign that says “Safe Place” outside a local library, fire station, or even McDonalds? That location is a part of the Safe Place (National Program) initiative to provide access to immediate help and resources for youth in need. For #NationalSafePlaceWeek, our Children’s Services team popped over to some of our Safe Place sites to say thank you with sweet treats! We are incredibly grateful for the nearly 200 locations in Hillsborough that provide a safety net for our youth. ?? Find out more about the Safe Place program: https://bit.ly/4iK3eDJ
