Please help us to keep these precious children safe.
According to a 2012 study
by the Center on Victimization and Safety of the Vera Institute
of Justice and the Ms. Foundation for Women, “children with
disabilities are 2.9 times more likely than children without disabilities to be
sexually abused. Children with intellectual and mental health disabilities appear
to be the most at risk, with 4.6 times the risk of sexual abuse as their peers
without disabilities.” Sexual Abuse of
