The Enough Abuse Campaign is a grassroots movement that originated in Massachusetts by the Massachusetts Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Partnership and is gaining momentum across the country. Recognized by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as "...a trailblazing effort to prevent child sexual abuse by building a movement of concerned citizens, community by community," the Campaign has been adopted by Children's Home Society of South Dakota in partnership with the Center for the Prevention of Child Maltreatment for distribution and training throughout the state of South Dakota. Each of these six training opportunities are a part of the licensed Enough Abuse Campaign.
