Mission

To inform, stop, and help those in need with being abused.

Positions

  1. Child abuse is wrong and is detrimental to the well being of any kid.
  2. The media doesn't normally cover the subject often enough to really inform the population about the subject.
  3. To help kids learn that they don't have to hide that they were abused, and that they do have someone to run to if they need to.
  4. To help inform kids that there are other kids just like them.
  5. What to do if you gain knowledge of abusive acts.
  6. To slowly make the world a better place for children. No matter how small the contribution.

Description

Each week, CPS (child protective services) agencies recieve over 50,000 reports of neglect or types of Child abuse. It's not a light subject. Many aren't aware of how traumatic abuse can be to a child. It can change their life in a matter of an instant. This group is geared towards raising awareness in the matter and to make an effort to help stop abuse. If you join, we ask that you PLEASE invite ANYONE you know. This is for a good cause, just think, by doing this, you're helping kids across the nation and the world who are being abused each day.

    We Have created the 5 Million For Change Campaign to mobilize a force of good that will sweep across the globe and create true sustainable CHANGE on every continent.

    The 5 Million For Change Campaign...which began as a single dream in 2002 has grown into a multitude of people all over the world united by a single belief that TOGETHER we can make a massive impact on the world.

    We believe we can offer hope to anyone... We believe we can offer a helping hand to those who need it... We believe we have the choice to create the kind of world we live in... We believe we can create a tidal wave of goodness that will carry everyone to a better place. We believe each person has the power to create the life they envision.

    What began as a mission to provide funding for charitable organizations all around the world has turned into a movement of vast proportions that is growing explosively.

    There is so much division and separation in our world. People are separated by beliefs, by politics, by race, by religion… This separation and division are the cause of most of the problems in our world today. People can’t work together to solve problems because they are too busy focusing on how they are different. The truth is that people have many more similarities than differences.

    The 5 Million For Change Campaign has reached beyond the divide and united Christian, Jew, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, New Age, Atheist, Agnostic…We embrace Black, White, Indian, Asian, Hispanic… We welcome a vast array of political beliefs… We welcome all sexual identities. We simply welcome PEOPLE – people who believe that by combining our gifts and hearts to make a difference , we can have a massive impact on our world.

    Our websites are a portal into all the divisions that comprise who we are. Now that you know our heart and goals, I hope you will explore what we offer here and find what resonates with you. Very few of us have the resources to make a big difference on our own. But our small efforts, combined with the small efforts of millions will create a tidal wave of goodness that will sweep the globe.

    I lived on a military base and called the mps in the middle of the night because i watched the guy across the street from me walk to his girlfriends car get in and left his 2 kids in the house alone (i made sure by knockin on the door that no one was there) they came saw the kids asleep in their beds went in the house and sat their til the father came back home(about 2 hours later) and instead of taking the 2 small kids he got to keep them the kids were maybe 5 and 2. I know if it was anyone else outside of the military they would have got their kids taken away. The whole system is messed up.

    everyone makes mistakes, some of us learn from them & some refuse to do so. once a person has shown that they have learned and have made certain life changes in the correct direction, they should be given the opportunity to be the parent that their child deserves. doing this is an undisputable act of love....but those who do not do this, however, should have their children taken so that their kids can have a fighting chance. it is tragic that this all too often is just the opposite of the way this system really works.

    First of all omg that poor baby! Secondly. Yes dcfs needs to be reformed. They are taking babies away from parents that hve just made mistakes because of them being teenagers like they went and hung out with the wrong people and they ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time or parents that have alligations that they abused their children when what happened was just an accident instead of these parents that do drugs in front of their kids and live in one bedroom apartments with three, four, five kids plus their spouse and that room is filthy and rundown and never let their children go outside and never dress them in cloths that fit them and scream and yell at their children in public and leave them screaming in the backseat of a hot car and just drive off ignoring them (the parent was in the car driving but still the baby was crying and the parent was ignoring them and the baby was only about a year old) or parents that really have done something wrong they get to keep their kids but those of us who were just stupid one time and stole a cd from walmart ends up getting their baby taken away from them. When there are parents, daycare centers, even fast food restaraunts that put our children in jeperdy. Our burger king's playplace is filthy I was wondering if I needed to take it farther then corporate or not. I know to give tem time to clean it up but after that.

    Want to stop child abuse? Start by reforming CPS or DCFS or whatever other name they may go by in any given state. Start by taking children born with FAS or born drug addicted away from the parents right from the get go. If mom tests positive for drugs,or if baby tests positive for drugs or has problems consistant with fetal alchohol syndrom or addiction, get that child away from mom before she has a chance to mess the poor kid up EVEN MORE. Example: Here in Pahrump NV there is a couple named RICHARD & KELLY OLIVER. When their youngest was born, he tested positive for meth, as did KELLY OLIVER. Instead of being arrested right out of the hospital and having the baby and their other 6 kids removed, CPS went to the hospital and asked her when the best time would be to conduct a home check would be. Now, if subjecting an unborn baby to an addiction he never asked for is not child abuse, I don't know what is! So how is it that this can go on, but a mom CALLS THE COPS on her child's abuser and rushed to her child's rescue the moment she discovered the abuse and somehow winds up becoming the accused?! The system is broken! Maybe it is time for some kind of nation wide petition to nationalize child abuse laws as well as the protocol for the enforcement thereof.

    Hey everyone! I'm known as Mother Teresa! Can you guess how I got the name? lol I have a passion and love for children. I always have! I have spent my entire life trying to protect, educate, raise, and support all children. It has ruined every marriage and personal relationship I have had since I was 18. Just ruined another year and half relationship as of last month. His youngest daughter came out to say that she was molested a year or so ago. She told her mom and mom and the detectives told him. He flipped out (of course). I tried for months to get him to take care of legal documentation, VA, DA, physical test reports, etc. I pushed for her mental and physical safety in every aspect. He knows she was molested, but he doesn't know what "happened". He won't deal with the "facts" or even listen to the details. The mother has taken care of all of that with her. The problem is that she lives with the dad now and he wont take responsibility in getting the details and talking to her. I pushed harder. He dropped me like a bad habit saying I was treating him like a child and if I was going to do that, he doesn't want me. He has 6 kids and I love them and they love me. I had to contact the mother to let her know that everything he said he would do, he didn't do. She had no idea about anything that I had mentioned to him. I've been through this before with other kids and it will exhaust you just in making sure you have all the proper court contacts, counseling info, hearings, trials, etc. I simply feel that you need to step up to the plate for your children. I don't care how bad the circumstances are! I later found out most everything he told me during our relationship was a lie or a fabrication of the truth to make him look like a great "dad". I guess he just used me for what he could get out of me for his family. I feel horrible for the children. The great news is that the mother and I have become quite fond of each other. She is working hard to get things taken care of. She is a stern parent and that's why the kids live with dad. He lets them get away with EVERYTHING (except for when I'm around they act like totally different children). What a mess! Anyways, some of the kids call and talk to me. They know what true love is from me. I lost a liar of a boyfriend, but gained the respect of their mother, and the children know that my love, forever, is unconditional. There are different forms of abuse. From molestation to a parent who won't take care you properly. It's amazing how people attack the people who love them the most!
