Stop It Now! helps adults accept the responsibility to recognize, acknowledge, and confront the behaviors that lead to the sexual abuse of children. The organization offers adults tools they can use to prevent sexual abuse—before there’s a victim to heal or an offender to punish. In collaboration with a network of community-based Stop It Now! programs, the organization reaches out to adults who are concerned about their own or others’ sexualized behavior toward children.
