Dear friends of children,
MassKids continues to work towards a world where every child is cherished
and lives a life free from abuse, thanks to concerned citizens like you who
help [1]support our cause. We are a leader in the field of child sexual
abuse prevention through our[2] Enough Abuse Campaign, which educates and
mobilizes communities, provides training and technical assistance on
policies to schools and youth organizations, and advocates for child sexual
abuse prevention legislation.
Last week, we celebrated the first official World Day for the Prevention
of, and Healing from Child Sexual Abuse, Exploitation and Violence on
November 18th. The Enough Abuse Campaign was a founding partner of the
Global Collaborative that helped establish this day, which was officially
announced by the United Nations earlier this month.
To date, in Massachusetts, 11 school districts including 114 schools, as
well as several private schools have adopted Enough! Preventing Child
Sexual Abuse in My School, and over 15,000 school staff have been educated
through our course. This year, we launched our SAFETY S.T.A.R.S. program to
help schools and youth organization improve their abuse prevention
policies, and we launched the bimonthly States Policy Exchange, a national
networking group of advocates from different states pushing for child
sexual abuse prevention legislation. MassKids is collaborating with Prevent
Child Abuse America and the National Conference of State Legislatures on a
CDC-funded research initiative to evaluate the impact of state child sexual
abuse prevention laws across the country.
MassKids is a small organization making a big difference. Every dollar
raised is spent strategically to take our prevention programs and policies
to more communities. Join us in the movement to ensure every child lives a
life free from abuse by choosing MassKids and our Enough Abuse Campaign as
