About Us

Our Mission

    The Child Molestation Research & Prevention Institute is a national science-based nonprofit organization dedicated to preventing child sexual abuse through research, education, and family support. Because people who develop a sexual interest in children usually develop it during their teenage years and even younger, our focus is on providing information to professionals and to families about the early warning signs of a problem, as well as the availability of early diagnosis and effective treatment from a sex-specific specialist. We want to stop molestation at the very earliest point possible -- before it even happens.

Our Goals

  • To drastically reduce the number of children who are sexually abused.
  • To educate professionals who work with children about early diagnosis and effective treatment.
  • To educate and support families.
  • To train volunteers to teach primary prevention of child sexual abuse.
  • To conduct research that focuses on the prevention of child sexual abuse.
