The Signs of Hope
In March 2015, The Signs of Hope, formerly The Rape Crisis Center, partnered with Prevent Child Abuse Nevada and brought the Enough Abuse! Campaign to Nevada to educate and empower our community to end Child Sexual Abuse.
The Enough Abuse Campaign and the creation of its’ materials were originally funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The Enough Abuse! materials were created by Prevent Child Abuse Massachusetts.
Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Task Force
The Nevada Task Force on the Prevention of Sexual Abuse of Children was created within the Division of Child and Family Services during the 77th (2013) Legislative Session and signed into law by Governor Brian Sandoval. The task force served to identify strategies, goals, and recommendations for preventing child sexual abuse in Nevada.
The Task Force is no longer a legislative mandate, but organizations throughout the state of Nevada expressed the wish that the Task Force reconvene to address the issue of child sexual abuse prevention in Nevada. The Task Force will continue to provide strategies, goals, and recommendations in order to keep children in Nevada safe from the scourge of child sexual abuse.
Members of the Task Force share the common vision of a world where children have the opportunity to grow up safe, healthy, and whole. Meetings are open to the public and anyone is welcome to become a member of the Nevada Task Force on the Prevention of Sexual Abuse of Children.
If you would like to attend the next meeting or become a member, please e-mail us at preventchildabusenevada@unlv.edu or give us a call at (702) 895-5053.
