Parthenon Publishing Launches New Our Kids Website
Donates Digital Media Services to a Non-Profit for Children
Parthenon Publishing is pleased to announce the launch of the new Our Kids website, ourkidscenter.org.
Our Kids provides specialized medical and psychosocial services to children when there are concerns or allegations of sexual abuse. The organization offers a warm, caring environment to the young patients who arrive for medical evaluations.
"We are all delighted with the new website," says Sue Fort White, Executive Director of Our Kids. "Often the first contact that a parent or guardian has with Our Kids comes through the website, as they prepare themselves for what to expect during the visit. Parthenon has put together a website that is both inviting and informative, so the people who come to the site for information can easily find what they are looking for."
"After learning about the work that Our Kids does and meeting the people behind the organization, all of us at Parthenon knew that we wanted to help," says Bobby Stark, president of Parthenon Publishing. "We donated our design and web services, working closely with Our Kids to create a website that mirrored the professionalism and compassion of the center."
Our Kids was created 20 years ago to respond to a massive increase in reported sexual abuse cases following passage of a 1985 law mandating individuals to report any concerns of such abuse. The increased caseload overwhelmed hospital personnel, who were not specifically trained to evaluate such cases. Noting this, the Junior League of Nashville worked with Nashville General Hospital and Vanderbilt University Medical Center to develop this non-profit center to see children who may have experienced sexual abuse.
Parthenon Publishing, based in Nashville, Tenn., creates integrated custom print, web and email products. Its clients include TravelCenters of America, HCA, Unum and IASIS health care.
