We’re tying prevention efforts together

Our Mission

kNot Today drives the prevention of child sexual abuse by aligning professionals and building data-driven systems to transform fragmented efforts into collective impact.

Together, we can ensure every generation of children is safer than the last. Prevention is possible.

We can't prevent what we can't measure

The Bridge

Child sexual abuse (CSA) prevention professionals have been expected to solve a systemic crisis without systemic infrastructure. The field has lacked standardized tools to collect shared data, demonstrate measurable impact, & apply proven best practices. Until now.

A U.S.-focused CSA prevention data-tracking and resource platform.

Built by the field, for the field.

“We can't know if prevention works if we can't measure it. The Bridge gives the field the infrastructure to not only measure prevention, but also scale what works.”

— Dr. Melissa Bright

Founder & Executive Director of The Center for Violence Prevention Research

What was invisible is now measurable.
What was isolated becomes collective impact.
What was fragmented is now coordinated.

"As we were planning outreach for the upcoming school year, I was able to look at specific schools to determine if there was already programming in place and reach out to other organizations serving that area to coordinate our efforts. It really saved us time and effort!"
