The goal of Pinwheelsof Prevention® is to engage people in taking “extraordinary ordinary” actionsthat can reduce stress for families and increase resilience for kids—anythingfrom writing a letter to the editor in support of family support programs tooffering to babysit for a neighbor.

As part of these campaigns, Connecticut citizens make a promise toprevention by distributing pinwheels, “planting” pinwheel gardens, and hostingeducational events. The campaign is built around the symbol of the pinwheel.The pinwheel is a happy and uplifting token of childhood. It stands as a symbolof hope and the bright futures we want for Connecticut’s kids.
