The funds raised at the event will help the hundreds of abused children the agency serves each year.  Since 1984, the agency has provided free therapeutic services for children who are the survivors of sexual abuse.  Without treatment, children who have been sexually abused are at higher risk for alcohol or drug problems, teen pregnancy, academic failure, eating disorders, depression, health problems, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, or suicide.  Because so few people in society talk about sexual abuse, most do not realize how common it is: 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 6 boys will be sexually abused before their 18th birthday.  In the U.S., it is estimated that there are 39 million adult survivors of sexual abuse.

Want to Protect the Children in Your Community?

We'll Present A Special Training Called Stewards of Children: Invite Us!

We know that 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 6 boys under 18 are sexually abused.
Most abusers are people children know, love or trust.
And most victimized children never tell.


If your organization serves the needs of children, it is your duty to be aware that it happens, to recognize it when it does, and to put policies and procedures in place to protect the children. Everyone who works with children needs this training, which is offered at minimal cost. We will bring the training to you.
