Stop Child Abuse Now (SCAN) - 1209

Tonight's special guest is Carol D Levine from Phillipsburg, New Jersey, one of NAASCA's most dedicated volunteer family members and author of the book "Panic Child: the harrowing true story of sexual abuse and neglect." Carol's commitment to the cause and mission at NAASCA, namely to address issues related to childhood abuse and trauma including sexual assault, violent or physical abuse, emotional traumas and neglect, is undeniable. She seeks to educate the public both on the "Stop Child Abuse Now" talk show and by making regular live personal appearances in and around Phillipsburg, New Jersey. She's offered hope for healing to innumerable still-suffering adult survivors of child abuse. It's not been an easy path for Carol. Her childhood was filled with child sexual abuse, stranger abduction, and rape, a journey of pain, and neglect. But even after the toll it took on her in her adult life, over 30 years ago Carol found the courage to keep going, to heal and to be a voice for change. Carol has appeared on numerous other radio shows, too, has been interviewed for newspapers and spoken before community groups and at colleges. She spreads her message of recovery and speaks out against the horrible pandemic of child abuse. Slated to serve as NAASCA's Vice President, Carol continues to appear as a regular panelist on our SCAN talk shows, and host the episodes wherever the regular host has a conflict.
