proposal

Child abuse and ways to prevent it

• brochure, website, poster, organization
• Colors: red, black, more of serious theme since child abuse is a serious topic.
• I want to come up with an organization that helps parents and guardians learn more about children and child abuse so that it will not be a common problem. I want to make a class for adults and children. This class can also help them understand each other better and get along more.
• Production: I am planning to finish this within the next two weeks.

website

Website Prototype

My home page will include my topic and a bit of information about my website. It will basically help lead the viewer into the main topic which is stopping child abuse.

My research will consist of all the different types of child abusive, facts, symptoms, signs, etc.

My webpage will include useful information and a hotline number as well as the PSA i constructed.

Thinking ahead

I am currently planning on making a pamphlet filled with useful information that will help persuade our communities to help stop child abuse. This pamphlet will also include the address to the website i will be creating along with a hotline number. I researched different websites and found several useful things i could incorporate in my presentation.


http://helpguide.org/mental/child_abuse_physical_emotional_sexual_neglect.htm- This particular website shows myths that i see helpful in recognizing what child abuse really is.

http://www.childabusepreventioncenter.org/ i like how it has "get involved" resources.


http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/childabuse.html  I like the medicine articles and the health topics


http://www.medicinenet.com/child_abuse/article.htm This particular website include several questions that many people have towards child abuse.


http://www.injurypreventioncenter.org/index.aspx?id=programs_prevention_capco This website has a mission and it is determined to help stop abuse.

POSTER!!!!!

I thought about my ideas and main concept, so i began by gathering pictures that represented child abuse. I ended up deciding to pick out two pictures which basically contrast each other. The main one is basically identifying a sad child that is a victim of abusive behavior. The second one represents two children feeling happy and free. My topic is "Stop Child Abuse". My poster includes those words at the top of the page because it is my main message. I also included at website and a hotline number where people can go to for more information or help. I inserted this at the end of the poster. I also included the three main types of abusive behaviors and i made those stand out a little more to the point where attention is grabbed.
