The purpose of this subchapter is to establish a McGruff House Program for the town. The Program will permit the designation of safe houses in Kill Devil Hills where children who are lost, have run away from home, are abused, neglected, threatened or in any other type of distress can feel safe, comfortable and secure in going to and having caring adults and the proper governmental authorities provide the necessary intervention.
