MUSICIANS WANTED
The Fiona Project works with musicians and artists around the globe to connect their communities with quick child safety tips and survivor support resources through concerts and other arts-based events. Our mission is to undo the taboo around child sexual abuse that keeps victims silent and predators free. We do this by bringing awareness of child sexual abuse to everyday people in an easy, non-threatening way--through music and the arts.

Child Sexual Abuse Prevention
"RULES TO REMEMBER"
A safe, empowered, knowledgeable caregiver creates a safe, empowered, knowledgeable child.
Show your kids that you are a safe adult. Listen to their stories and complaints with open ears. Be supportive instead of judgmental. Try to understand their world. And remember, sometimes it's what they're not saying that it most important.
Watch. Listen. Connect.
