STRENGTHENING THE WEAKEST BEFORE ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN THAT’S WHAT POWER-CHILD e.V. IS ALL ABOUT

Our children and adolescents live in a world where sexual violence is omnipresent. Many of them find it hard to talk about their fears, especially as the threat generally comes from their own social environment – the very place where they should turn for help. When they finally muster the courage to communicate, it is often too late. Sexual violence inflicts wounds that are very hard to heal.

In April of 2002, on the initiative of Martin J. Krug the Power-Child e.V. (e.V. = registered association) was founded. Veronica Ferres was patron until summer 2009. Power-Child e.V. seeks to strengthen the self-confidence of young people, so that they are more and more autonomously able to recognize sexual assaults, prevent them and seek help from adults. A further goal of Power-Child e.V. is the sensitization and enlightenment of the general public for the many forms of sexual violence toward children and adolescents.
