TOYS-Trample Over Your Sorrows is a campaign to create awareness against child sexual abuse and to support and counsel adult survivors. Our campaign aims at creating awareness among the youth about child sexual abuse and its effects even during adulthood. We hope to affect a positive change during the course of our campaign which will be conducted at ground level starting 17th of December and concluding 24th of December. Our campaign will include conducting seminars and workshops to target our audience, which is the youth, as well as having events and street shows to engage the general public.
An important focus of our campaign is to keep it lively and interesting since it will help us to target the youth audience. We hope that if we affect enough of today’s youth they will stand up for the cause and make a difference.
We have associated with the non-governmental organisation ARPAN, who deals with creating awareness about child sexual abuse and counselling adult survivors. Arpan conducts seminars for parents and children to create awareness. They also conduct counselling sessions for adult survivors and workshops for people who wish to volunteer for the cause.
With the help of Arpan, we hope to bring about a change in our society by curbing the occurrences of child sexual abuse. Children are our future and we need to protect them. We hope that children can enjoy the childhood they deserve.
