Prostasia is the first national child protection organization to promote evidence-based laws and policies for the prevention of child sexual abuse, while insisting that the human and civil rights of all are also upheld. We believe that children deserve to be protected by laws and policies that are effective, fair, and constitutionally sound. We promote an evidence-based, scientific approach that is informed by dialogue, outreach, and scholarly research. This results in us taking different positions than other groups on a number of key issues such as Internet freedom and the rights of sex workers.
