[UTJ Letters On Sexual Abuse]

According to statistics, one out of every 4 children will be abused by the time they reach the age of 18. Considering there are just under 20,000,000 people living in the state of New York, means there is roughly 5000,000 survivors of child sexual abuse living in the state.

Both adult survivors and children, who have not yet been abused -- living in the state of New York need your immediate help to insure the passage of The Child Victims Act of New York.

Attached are 2 links – the first with all NY state Assembly e-mail addresses, and the other is a listing of the NY Senate. Please make as many phone calls as you can to the New York senators and Assembly members.

If you don't have the time to call, it's important to send each of them e-mails, letting them know how important it is they support the bill.

Directions:

1. When you call tell them you want the Senator or Assembly member to support the 2009 - Child Victims Act, WITHOUT ANY CHANGES!!!

2. The Legislative Aide will ask for your name and address. If you do not live in New York -- yet were abused there make sure to state that fact.

Support the Child Victims Act

NYS Assembly Bill # A2596

Senate Bill # S2568

PLEASE make the phone calls first thing Monday morning.

If you can't call, start sending the e-mails NOW!!!!

The groups that oppose the bill are also making calls, which includes those associated with the New York Catholic Conference/Church, a small group of Sephardic rabbis, the insurance industry and the ACLU.…This is why it's vitally important for everyone to call (or e-mail) so that your support of the bill will be recorded.
