Television Special on Child Sexual Abuse
 You may have heard that in the wake of the revelations of sexual abuse in the Duggar Family, stars of TLC's "19 Kids and Counting," and the show's subsequent cancellation, TLC released a one-hour documentary titled "
Breaking the Silence" addressing the issue of child sexual abuse.
The special aired Sunday, Aug. 30, on TLC. TLC partnered with RAINN, Erin's Law Foundation, and Darkness to Light, developer of the Stewards of Children adult sexual abuse prevention curriculum many Children's Advocacy Centers have used, to consult on and produce the documentary.
