Every child deserves to feel safe in their body. Download your FREE poster and start the conversation today.
Last year 15,735 kids in Pennsylvania came to a CAC because of suspected child abuse
75% of those cases involved alleged sexual abuse
Over half of child victims were age 13 or younger
We know first-hand the hard reality that in 9 out of 10 cases the abuser is someone the child knows and trusts.
We also know that child sexual abuse IS preventable, and as a parent or caregiver, YOU are the first line of defense. Talking to your kids about bodies, boundaries, and behaviors is one of the most important conversations you can have. We want to help you get comfortable having these conversations—here’s a simple way for you to get started today.
