ECSA Strategies
Ending child sexual abuse will be a decades-long journey, and CACTX is committed to building a strong launchpad programmatically and organizationally.
Our Strategic Program Initiatives
CACTX has identified three Strategic Program Initiatives to end child sexual abuse. Shifting the perception of child sexual abuse from solely a criminal justice issue to both a public health and criminal justice issue acknowledges that prevention is possible, resources should be invested, and action should be taken to stop it from occurring in the first place.
