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.

Billy Joe Cain: Virtual Reality's Role in Combating Human Trafficking

“So the best you can do is teach your kids that there is a danger there and try to be open to listening to them and having discussions about this stuff, because you're never gonna take a cell phone away from a kid.”

Ever wondered how virtual reality can help protect children from human trafficking? In this compelling episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now' (SCAN), Billy Joe Cain, co-founder of PBJ Learning, sheds light on this innovative approach. With a background in creating educational and interactive programs, Billy Joe's mission took a personal turn when he discovered a close friend was grooming his children. This harrowing experience fueled his passion for preventing human trafficking through education and technology.

Billy Joe explains how virtual reality can immerse individuals in the experiences of trafficking survivors, fostering empathy and understanding. This episode covers a wide range of crucial topics, including the basics of human trafficking, the importance of body safety education from an early age, and the power of ethical consumption to combat exploitation. It also touches on the Human Trafficking Essentials online course, which offers free training during August.
