NEWBURGH – The Zero Abuse Project, a nonprofit dedicated to stopping child sexual abuse and providing assistance to survivors, will host an event with State Senator Skoufis tonight, October 30 in Newburgh, about the changes to the statute of limitations requirements for child sexual abuse in New York under the new Child Victims Act (CVA), which took effect in recent weeks.
The event will be co-sponsored by local partners from across New York, including the New York State Children’s Alliance, and NY Loves Kids.
Zero Abuse Project Chief Executive Officer Jeff Dion will guide a conversation with leading child welfare advocates, and sexual abuse prevention experts about the new opportunities under the CVA for survivors of sexual abuse to seek justice against their abusers and the institutions who covered for them.
The event is free and open to the public.
