A Call to Action
Posted: September 6, 2019
If we’re ever going to take bold steps forward to protect victims and prevent sexual assault, we need to change our mindsets as a society so that we stop blaming victims and stop minimizing sexual assaults by protecting the abusers.
There's a situation locally that has many in the community in an uproar, and rightfully so.
FREE Community Training: Protecting Children from Sexual Abuse
September 17, 2019 - December 10, 2019
Child sexual abuse is likely the most prevalent health problem children face, with the most serious array of consequences. In fact, 1 in 10 children will experience sexual abuse before their 18th birthday. This means that whether you work with youth, are a parent, or are simply a member of a community, it is highly likely that someone you know or care for has experienced, or is currently experiencing, child sexual abuse. It’s going to happen whether you are prepared to deal with it or not – unless you stop it from happening. And the good news, it can be stopped.
