is to prevent and combat child sexual abuse.
Our Mission
Enough is enough. North America’s hidden crisis of child sexual abuse means we need work together to build a culture of accountability, transparency, and awareness around child safety. By doing so, our goal is to create a movement to keep all children safe from sexual abuse; to work with policymakers to strengthen safeguards; to guide investors and foundation to make ethical investments in youth serving organizations and facilities and, in turn, lower the number of children who become victims every year.
