So I want to give them that chance and that was the whole reason behind this idea
Have you ever wondered about the power of advocacy and how it can spark real change? In this episode of AU4H Radio - Real Talk, PA State Rep Aaron Bernstine shares his gratitude towards Donna Kshir for her tireless efforts in bringing the idea of a public child abuse registry to his attention. Donna, along with her best friend Lee 'Cougardawn' Roberts, has spent nine years fighting for this cause in Pennsylvania.
Their journey began while working on Conner's Law in Kentucky, inspired by the tragic case of Conner Bachauss, a two-year-old who was tortured and killed by Ronald Saunders II. Shockingly, Saunders reoffended shortly after his release from prison, highlighting the urgent need for a public database similar to Megan's Law. This episode dives deep into the statistics of child abuse, revealing that 50% of abusers will reoffend and that millions of cases go unreported each year.
It's a sobering reminder of the importance of vigilance and advocacy in protecting our children. Donna and Lee's dedication is truly inspiring, as they discuss their long journey and the impact they hope to achieve with the child abuse registry. If you're passionate about making a difference and want to hear a story of relentless advocacy, this episode is a must-listen. It’s not just about statistics; it's about giving kids a chance at a safer future.
