Andy Chambers is on a mission to prevent child sexual abuse.

He wants to train 3,000 Glynn County adults in recognizing and reporting child sexual abuse because he thinks if 5 percent of the county understands the signs of sexual abuse and how to report it, local children will be better off.

“The belief is that when 5 percent of culture changes behavior, you see a cultural shift,” said Chambers, pastor at Frederica Presbyterian Church on St. Simons Island.

That’s why he’s conducting child sexual abuse prevention training along with the Golden Isles Children’s Center.
