Child Sexual Assault is a silent epidemic that impacts children, adult survivors and society. It is highly likely there is a loved one in your life that has been sexually abused as a child. The 2005 ACE Study reports 1 out of every 5 girls and 1 out of every 7 boys will experience some form of sexual abuse before the age of 18. As a community, it takes all of us working together to end this criminal assault against the most vulnerable among us–defenseless children. It will take all of our voices, our awareness, our willingness to speak out and demand systemic change.
Thank you for walking to Stop the Silence.
