Enough Is Enough: It's Child Abuse Prevention Month. See What EIE and Our Allies in the Movement are Doing to Protect Children!

Each year, April marks Child Abuse Prevention Month. The online exploitation and abuse of children is a crime targeting our most vulnerable. Sadly, these crimes continue to flourish and their impacts are potentially long lasting. In 2023, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's CyberTipline received over 36 million reports containing more than 88 million images and videos of child sexual abuse — that is 75% increase in just five years! Astonishingly enough, these numbers represent only child sexual abuse material (CSAM) found on the open web, and does not include material produced and shared on the dark web or on livestream platforms. Being informed and talking about child abuse prevention is key. To this end, in addition to sharing our own efforts, we want to highlight a few other timely campaigns, legislative efforts led by others in the movement. It takes a village to protect our children, and Enough Is Enough is grateful for all dedicated to keeping children safer online.
