Stop It Now! was founded on the belief that adults are in the best position to keep children safe from sexual abuse. By adults, we mean parents, survivors, family members, law enforcement, and professionals of all types.

No other prevention program has ever directly challenged all adults to take full responsibility for ending sexual abuse.
