Arizona Bill to Prevent Child Sexual Abuse Fizzles Out: A Survivor's Fight for Change

Arizona Bill to Prevent Child Sexual Abuse Hits a Roadblock

Despite passionate advocacy, a bill aimed at implementing a child sexual abuse prevention program in Arizona schools has been shelved, leaving survivors like Aaron Morin determined to continue the fight.

Background of Aaron's Law

Aaron Morin, a survivor of child sexual abuse, has spearheaded Aaron's Law - a program that mandates schools to educate students on personal body safety and reporting inappropriate contact. Witnessing the trauma herself, Morin advocates fiercely for prevention.

The Disappointment of a Failed Initiative

The bill faced unexpected opposition after initially proposing concrete actions for prevention in schools. Despite testimonies and backing from survivors and advocates, the legislative journey took a different turn, ending in a disheartening halt.

Looking Ahead: Persistence in the Face of Adversity

While the legislative setback is a significant blow, Aaron Morin refuses to back down. Turning to school districts directly, Morin hopes to instigate change from the grassroots level, urging proactive education on child safety.
