53-15-102. Purpose.
(1) The Legislature recognizes that children are often in dangerous situations that may be threatening or frightening to them and that there is a need for "safe homes" in our neighborhoods where a child may go for help.
(2) The Legislature also recognizes that along with the need for "safe homes" that children can recognize easily, there is needed a method by which these homes can be identified.
(3) The purpose of this chapter is to: provide and designate a recognizable symbol for those "safe homes" that children can readily identify; and establish a method by which local law enforcement agencies can identify and train volunteers who are willing to make their homes "safe homes".
