MPPCSA and lead Marylands Enough Abuse Campaign. The Campaign serves as a community
resource for parents, professionals, organizations and other concerned adults to prevent child
sexual abuse. It also aims to prevent children from developing abusive behaviors in the future.
In addition to Maryland, The Enough Abuse Campaign also has a significant presence in New
Jersey, New York, and California. Included with this letter are some resource materials from The
Campaign.
Now in the third year of our collaborative work, we are proud of our accomplishments largely
because of the coordinated effort between twenty-six credible and committed state-level partners
as well as an equal number of local community partners. To date, more than 30 trainers
throughout Maryland are certified to conduct trainings using the EACs five standardized
curriculums. We have reached over 1,500 individuals and trained over 700 staff and mangers
from over 50 youth serving organizations. This year, we initiated the Gatekeepers for Kids
Initiative to educate institutions in strategies to strengthen their child protection policies and
practices. Through Gatekeepers we offer a comprehensive assessment tool, practical guide, fact
sheets, resource bank of policies and tools, as well as, training and consultation. And yet, we are
very aware that the work has only just begun.
We turn to you, as a leader in the school community, for assistance in reaching more schools,
organizations and individuals throughout Montgomery County; and encourage you to join with
us in this important opportunity to end child sexual abuse before it occurs. Together we can
strengthen the knowledge, skills, policies and practices of parents, educators, community
members, and organizational leaders entrusted to protect Marylands children from the life-time
devastating effects of child sexual abuse.
I will contact your office in the near future to schedule a convenient time to meet with you.
MPPCSA is eager to share these valuable resources to help assess your systems student
protection program. I look forward to working with you to address this critical issue.
Sincerely,
