The National Coalition to Prevent Child Sexual Exploitation

ATSA is a member of The National Coalition to Prevent Child Sexual Exploitation. The Coalition is formed of more than 30 major agencies and experts that have collaborated to develop this first coordinated, collective national plan to focus on prevention to end demand for the sexual abuse and exploitation of children. It supports comprehensive prevention strategies, but pays special attention to primary prevention and positive youth development-actions that take place before child sexual abuse or exploitation has been perpetrated. Join ATSA in preventing child sexual exploitation--please download the National Plan and distribute the documentto family and community members.  Please contact atsa@atsa.com for more information.
