Most parents have never heard of sadistic sextortion. Predators are counting on that. This isn’t about money. The people behind it want to see a child suffer. They find kids on gaming platforms, social media, and chat apps. 84% of victims are girls. Most are 14 to 17. Some are younger than 10. Here’s what you can do to prevent this from happening to your child: → Know who your child is talking to online. → Ask about their games and apps, and keep asking. → Tell them: “No one ever gets to tell you to hurt yourself. If anyone does, come to me. No matter what.” If it happens, have them stop responding and don’t comply with anything else. Protecting your child starts with one conversation.

Over 275 boys and girls have been reunited with their families! In Ethiopia, many children leave home for the nearest big city chasing a better life — the hope of an education or a job as a way to send income back to the families they love. But too often, children are lured away from their homes on false promises and instead find themselves in life-threatening circumstances. Some end up trapped as home servants, married off very young, forced into physical labor, or caught in cycles of abuse, and for some, the road leads to trafficking. Many never find their way back to their families and are left unprotected, living on the streets. Our ministry partner, All God's Children International, through the AGCI & TTF House of Hope, works to combat these dangers by providing trauma-informed care in a home where these children can feel safe, seen, and loved. The team is equipped to identify families of these young, missing children and works to reunify them whenever it's safe and possible. Because of you, more boys and girls are finding their way home — reminded that they are known, loved, and treasured as God's image-beings.

A Rare Achievement in Haiti! Six students just made history as one of the first full graduating classes of LIFE Academy. There have been other individuals who have graduated, but this was the first full class. What began with just three students in a small classroom has grown to 54 students across six classrooms. Alongside our Ministry Partner, myLIFEspeaks, teachers and staff at LIFE Academy provide children with special needs in Haiti the education and support so often out of reach. Throughout their time at LIFE Academy, these students have worked hard to build independence and learn practical life skills, including sewing and cooking, as they prepare for what comes next. In a country where children with special needs are often overlooked, this moment matters. These students are seen, celebrated, and deeply loved. Congratulations, graduates!

259 Targets of Online Child Sexual Exploitation and Abuse Identified In a coordinated effort led by our partner @ChildRescueCo in collaboration with the Singapore Police Force, Operation Mariposa Asia brought investigators from seven countries together to identify offenders and protect children from online sexual abuse and exploitation. Over the course of the operation, 259 targets were identified, with investigations now moving forward through law enforcement agencies in the participating countries. Officers shared investigative expertise, strengthened international partnerships, and demonstrated what is possible when law enforcement refuses to let borders stand in the way of protecting children!

🚨 381 Buyers of Live-Stream Child Sexual Abuse Identified in Historic U.S. Operation In a coordinated effort led by our partners at @ChildRescueCo and Homeland Security Investigations, 100 law enforcement officers from 60 police organizations came together to identify and investigate offenders involved in the live-stream sexual abuse of children. This was the first operation of its kind in the United States and the largest live-stream operation ever held! During the week-long training and operational sprint in Florida, they reviewed 3,000+ leads and 40,000 media files. They identified 381 offenders across all 50 states, one U.S. territory, and five countries. These offenders are from developed countries, like the United States, who prey on vulnerable children in developing countries, and a single offender can victimize hundreds of children from across the globe. We are grateful for the investigators, analysts, and partners who continue to work tirelessly to identify offenders, protect vulnerable children, and pursue justice!
