Protecting children isn’t just the responsibility of law enforcement, it requires a community-wide effort.
The Safetypup® program helps children, parents and the public at large confront serious issues such as drugs, violence, identity theft and bullying. Huron Police Chief Kevin Van Diepen says the program is part of the National Child Safety Council.
Safetypup® provides materials that are used in the department’s bicycle and pedestrian safety program.
Van Diepen says letters have been sent out requesting funding assistance for the program.
Vna Diepen says he has been pleased with the public’s response to the fundraising effort.
