# Children's Illustrated Book Campaigns The 'One in 100' Initiative Spotlights the Medically Complex By Debra John | Published 2024-08-16 | Social Good Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/one-in-100-initiative References: [newswire](https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/safehaven-releases-illustrated-book-to-raise-awareness-for-the-1-per-cent-of-children-living-with-medical-complexities-888236479.html) & [safehaven.to](https://www.safehaven.to/)  The 'One in 100' Initiative by [Safehaven](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/where-hope-lives), a Toronto-based [not-for-profit organization](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/international-nonprofit-organization), addresses the medical complexities of children who frequently encounter difficulties within the current care system. This initiative aims to raise awareness about these challenges and the disparities these children experience compared to their peers. As part of the initiative, Safehaven has developed an illustrated book inspired by the "Where’s Waldo" series. The book features detailed scenes of well-known Toronto landmarks and "encourages readers to locate a medically complex child within the vibrant visuals." This approach is designed to "engage the public and draw attention to the often-overlooked presence of these children in communities." By integrating [medically complex children](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/world-health-organizations) into the illustrations, the 'One in 100' Initiative seeks to highlight their importance and promote greater recognition of their unique needs. Safehaven hopes this creative effort will increase understanding and foster a more inclusive perspective.
