A Childs Voice Is Heard At Pat’s Place Advocacy Center


Research shows that 1 in 10 children will be sexually abused before they reach their 18th birthday. In more than 90% of child abuse cases, the child knows and trusts the abuser. When will you start the conversation with your child about body boundaries? 

If you are an adult and contemplating telling your story about sexual abuse please research and reach out to the non-profit BraveStep.org. 

Francene Marie had the pleasure of interviewing Shawna Pagano, MSW, the  Director of Education and Community Engagement at Pat’s Place Child Advocacy Center.

When a child tells their abusive story to a caring staff member at Pat’s Place Advocacy Center, the healing process will soon begin. You must listen to this segment and decide if you need to have a conversation with your child. For more information about Pat’s Place Child Advocacy Center click here.
