social changers needed for
1 to 3 months
Opportunity Description:
Are you up for the challenge of a lifetime? Want to know that you are making a difference in the world and in children?s lives? Want to take on a difficult topic that people do not want to talk about, but know that it is happening in every community?
Then we want to work with you! We are Stop the Silence:Stop Child Sexual Abuse.
Child Sexual Abuse (CSA) is occurring in pandemic proportions and causes grave physical and psychological trauma, along with social havoc. In the U.S., CSA affects one-third of girls and one-sixth of boys by the time they are 18 years old. From the research available, we know that it is a worldwide pandemic and that prevalence rates have been identified as high as 60 percent in some places, and as low as 2 percent in others.
Skills needed: Public Relations. We need someone to help us continue our public relations campaign.
Benefits: The knowledge that you are contributing to social change on a level bigger than yourself. You will gain some great professional experience working on a topic that most people prefer to stay in a corner. We offer flexible work schedules, and the camaraderie of working with others on the front lines of stomping out child sexual abuse.

Mission Statement: (See Web Site For Updated Information)
The mission of Stop the Silence
Thank you for the information...I know that your organization has not yet extended its services here in [withheld]. The sad truth is that there are not alot of resources available to victims and their families here. I was lucky enough to have internet access but [withheld] is a poor city and most do not. Is there any way to extend your organization here or to start one of awareness?
is two-fold:
1. to increase awareness about and conduct programming to address the prevention and treatment of child sexual abuse (CSA), and
2. to address the relationships between this issue and the broader issues of overall family and community violence.
This mission underlines the importance of a shift in focus on positive development within our overall social complexes (e.g., the relationships between men and women, adults and children, cultural groups) to hinder violence-prone relationships. Our goal is to stop CSA and related forms of violence by changing societal relationships among and between groups.
