Learn the facts. Understand the risks…

children face a significant threat from child sexual abuse. We don’t get the sexual abuse of 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 6 boys before their 18th birthday by happenstance. When adults go into denial and fear, the sexual abuse of children happens. Fewer than 10% of abusers are strangers. Most children are violated by someone they and their caregivers know and trust. Friends and family are the greatest risk.
