About this podcast

Stop Child Abuse Now

NAASCA ORG

Monday to Friday's "Stop Child Abuse Now" (SCAN) feature trauma informed HOSTs and Co-hosts and respected child abuse prevention, intervention and recovery advocates. They're all volunteers members of the National Association of Adult Survivors of Child Abuse (NAASCA), a 501(c)3. Founded in 2009, NAASCA.org was originally a grassroots effort. It was launched based on our founder Bill Murray's personal life experienced. Bill wrote, "Very few adults escape years of severe childhood sexual abuse, pre-pubescent X-rated photography, sex trafficking, and a two week long kidnapping." He continued. "But I have, and for some 35 years I've been in recovery from its devastating effects." After years of operating as a grassroots effort, NAASCA became a public charity in 2015 .. a 501(c)3 .. but we receive no grants or outside support, and belong to no other organization. There are no dues or fees. Our MISSION is entirely self-sustaining through the volunteer contributions of our members. The single purpose is to address issues related to childhood abuse and trauma including sexual assault, violent or physical abuse, emotional traumas and neglect from two specific perspectives: 1) educating the public, and 2) offering hope for healing and services to adult survivors. There are now nearly 3000 BlogTalkRadio shows, podcasts in the ever-growing library. Join us five-nights-a-week (Mon to Fri), at 8pm EST (so 7pm CEN, 6pm MTN, 5pm PAC) for solution-oriented discussions about the many issues of child abuse and trauma. The shows always include panel discussions and call-in participation.

“Anyone who abuses a child is the lowest form of life on earth, and I'm not sorry for saying it.”

Imagine being a top student one day and struggling to get through the next. Cherie White's story is a powerful testament to the lasting effects of bullying and abuse. In this episode, Cherie, an anti-bullying advocate and author, joins as a special co-host to share her journey from being bullied in sixth grade to becoming a voice for those who face similar struggles today.

Her experience of 'poly-victimization'—enduring multiple forms of abuse—led her down a dark path, including a suicide attempt at fourteen. But Cherie's story doesn't end there. She turned her pain into purpose, writing books and advocating for others who feel powerless. This episode is a Q&A call-in session where survivor-professionals like Cherie tackle tough questions from listeners. They discuss the importance of addressing taboo subjects like childhood sexual abuse and offer practical advice for healing and recovery.

Whether you're a survivor, know someone who is, or simply want to understand the complexities of trauma, this episode provides a compassionate and insightful look into the paths toward healing.
