Resources

Lay person tasks

  • Support the creation of services for victims of childhood torture. At the moment, there is only one organization in the world that provides services.
  • Support services that help people who have aged out of foster care.
  • Support children's rights, and make it a priority in the way you vote. Children are the most vulnerable and oppressed group, as they are entirely dependent on the people around them. Politicians often don't care about children because they can't vote.
  • Support abuse and trafficking prevention education in K-12 education.
