| Dear Tom, |
|
As the Executive Director of VOICE Today, it is my
privilege to focus our efforts in making the VOICE Vision a reality.
 The Vision of VOICE is
to change the world; to make it a safe place for children; and a place
of healing for survivors.
To accomplish
this enormous vision, we've established six strategic initiatives to help us build a
network of partnerships with complimentary talent and
expertise. This will allow VOICE
to more efficiently and more rapidly advance our knowledge and resources to combat
the epidemic of child sexual abuse worldwide.
It is easy to look at this global epidemic and
say simply "What can one person do?", and then give up. However, I
challenge you to see yourself as a single snowflake, fearfully and
wonderfully made, that is combining with millions of others worldwide,
that will be part of the avalanche that will stop the sexual abuse of
children and the painful silence of survivors.
How's it going so far? Read on to find
out!! Also learn how you can contribute time, your talents and your
resources to this important and life changing effort.
May God richly bless
you and your families,
Tom
Scales
Executive Director

| VOICE GOES GLOBAL!!! |
 VOICE Today is working to break the silence and cycle of child
sexual abuse worldwide! A
two person VOICE Team will be traveling in Bulgaria from July 10th -
19th to help support the Bulgaria
Innocence Saved Project.
The work of VOICE Today is desperately
needed in this region of the world.
Child trafficking, child sexual abuse, and slavery are all a common
events in this region.
We desire to save these
children from child sexual abuse by providing prevention and protection
programs and as well as facilitating the healing of adult survivors
with intervention and restoration programs.
Please help
us! The total cost of this project is $4600, which includes the
airfare, lodging, food, and ground transportation. Your tax deductible
financial support is desperately needed.
Will
you please ask God what a child's innocence is worth to you? We pray
that God will abundantly bless you for your efforts to help us save a
child and help a survivor heal!

| Workshops
Continue to Grow!! |
 We are so
grateful that God continues to open doors and meet our every need!
Since the beginning of the year, we have spoken to over 10,000 people about the dangers and damage of child sexual
abuse. Additionally, we
presented 17 workshops in 2009 and have already presented 22 workshops
in 2010!
We are also
very excited to be adding two more
workshops to our program:
The Divorce Dilemma:
During family
crises that lead to divorce, a child can be especially vulnerable to
predators. This workshop provides insight into the special risks in
these circumstances and recommends approaches and tools to enhance the
child's safety.
And
The Grooming Mystery: This workshop educates and alerts adults to behaviors that might signal that a
child is being manipulated and/or abused. It highlights some of the tactics used by predators to gain the
trust of the child and the adults in the child's world. It is this process that
provides them with easy access to the child.
