After international health and development specialist Pamela Pine (PhD, MPH) organized a coalition of groups to address child sexual abuse (CSA) in 2002, Stop the Silence was born. Later, the conception of an annual Race to Stop the Silence catapulted the organization’s goal to raise awareness about CSA. Read on to find out what the organization is doing today and how they’re expanding their involvement.
Child Sexual Abuse, or CSA, occurs in epidemic proportions around the world, often with devastating consequences. Stop the Silence is a 501(c)3 organization looking to expose and stop CSA and help survivors heal worldwide. Our Goals are to help stop CSA and related forms of violence, promote healing of victims and survivors and celebrate the lives of those healed. We work on a comprehensive platform to address the complexity of issues regarding CSA from a number of perspectives. Our areas of focus are: support for services, advocacy, training of service providers, community education and outreach, policy, research and evaluation and other prevention measures (e.g., a focus on offenders).
Grassroots.org has allowed us to explore a host of possible mechanisms through which we can get our message out and attract people to learn more or support our cause. On top of that, we received help with the redesign and development of our web site and reach regarding our Queendom T.E.A. (The Etiquette Academy) Program, for which Stop the Silence is a parent organization.
