child abuse trauma prevention, intervention & recovery |
|
We have a single purpose at NAASCA, to address issues related to childhood abuse and trauma including sexual assault, violent or physical abuse, emotional traumas and neglect .. and we do so from two specific perspectives:
1) educating the public, especially as related to getting society over the taboo of discussing childhood sexual abuse, presenting the facts that show child abuse to be a pandemic, worldwide problem that affects everyone
2) offering hope for healing through numerous paths, providing many services to adult survivors of child abuse and information for anyone interested in the many issues involving prevention, intervention and recovery

The Blue Ribbon - sign of Child Abuse Awareness
NAASCA asks you to wear one everyday .. and to pass them out.
.
We're giving away FREE Blue Ribbons and "info cards" (4 or 5 per person) to anyone who writes for them .. and we'll continue to provide them in quantity and at our cost to pass out to family, friends, neighbors or at local community events.
Remember you'll need to include your complete mailing address whenever you're requesting NAASCA's FREE Blue Ribbons & "info cards" since they'll come to you through the US Post Office. |

| JW: Thank you so much for creating this forum/site, Bill Murray! I have led a lifetime of shame and sorrow with this secret from my childhood haunting me with every step. I never thought that there would be a time to shout out about the horrors of child sexual and physical abuse, but your kindness and compassion has provided this for all who have carried around the millstone of pain within our hearts and souls. As children, we never had a voice. Now we do, and we need to shout out about this criminal epidemic in society. This should never be a silent crime, but it still is. Let's protect those who can't be heard from a lifetime of pain and shame. |
