The White County Commission has declared April 15-19 as Exceptional Children’s Week to raise awareness about children with disabilities and exceptionalities.
The commissioners also approved a proclamation recognizing April as Child Abuse Prevention Month in the county. The declaration names four local organizations that help and protect children: South Enotah Child Advocacy Center, White County Family Connection, White County Department of Family and Children Services, and Enotah Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA).
During Exceptional Children’s Week, White County Schools will hold activities to help raise awareness about all types of disabilities and exceptionalities. The proclamation is to inform the community about the importance of recognizing the exceptional children in our community.
