Irish Poker Run to Benefit Realities for Children

In the United States today, 3 children will DIE from being abused and 2,700 children will be physically and sexually abused and Colorado ranks as high as the third worst state in the Nation for Child abuse deaths per capita. Larimer County fielded nearly 5,000 reports of child abuse and substantiated nearly 400 new cases of child abuse in 2010.

Every year thousands of children slip through the cracks of the system when Victims Compensation, Medicaid and other government funds are either exhausted or unavailable
