Take 25 minutes to talk to your children about safety.  It's easy, quick, free, and can make a difference in the life of a child.  The Take 25 Campaign, a national program of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, is designed to heighten awareness about children's safety issues.  With a focus on prevention, the campaign encourages parents, guardians and other trusted-adult role models to spend time talking to kids and teaching them ways to be safer. 

The staff of national office staff of Take 25 receives a proclamation from Mayor Carlos Alvarez for their tireless efforts in raising awareness for child safety issues.
