BEHIND CLOSED DOORS; Uncovering abuse in our institutions and communities.
WHEN ABUSE HAPPENS AT THE HANDS OF THOSE MEANT TO PROTECT; TRUST IS BETRAYED.
Many children enter schools with trust and hope, believing their teachers and protectors are there to guide and keep them safe. Unfortunately, when abuse happens at the hands of those meant to protect, that trust is shattered. This betrayal not only causes deep emotional and psychological scars but also affects a child’s ability to learn and grow in a safe environment. It is crucial to bring these issues to light, create strong policies, and provide support systems for survivors. By addressing abuse by educators openly, we can work towards rebuilding trust, ensuring accountability, and protecting future generations from harm. Schools must become safe havens, where respect and care are the foundation of every relationship.

It’s also important for the community to educate everyone about abuse, so people recognize the signs and know how to protect children.
Healing takes time, but with honesty, support, and commitment, the community can rebuild trust and keep its children safe.
