S6 E5 - Sexual Abuse Prevention - an interview with Kimberlee Norris of MinistrySafe
CW/TW - Discussion of child abuse/sexual abuse
"SEXUAL ABUSE DOES NOT SKIP ANY PARADIGM" - MinistrySafe
You've likely heard us reference MinistrySafe and Abuse Prevention Systems in past episodes, as Courtney used to work for them. Courtney has always seen the owners of this organization as mentors, because in alot of ways, they have shaped her to be what she is today - another survivor fighting for Justice, showing you what compassion looks like, and sharing our platform with victims and survivors impacted by these types of crimes.
We are pleased to announce an interview with Wife, mom, attorney and cofounder of MinistrySafe / Abuse Prevention Systems, Kimberlee Norris. Kim is unapologetically fierce, and compassionate - a rare combination in this world. She has been victim-centric and always engages with empathy within the organization (which she co-owns with her husband, Gregory Love, both who are lawyers versed in Sexual Abuse Prevention). Kim will give you, the listener, insight into what she and her husband does, share some tips for everyone who listens whether you lead a child serving organization, are a caregiver or parent to a child, or really just anyone who would love to be involved in either now, or in the future.

- FACT: One in four girls and one in six boys have been or will be sexually abused in their lifetime.
- FACT: Sexual abusers not only groom the victim, but they also groom the victim's parents, guardians, or caregivers ("the gatekeepers") in order to obtain trust and find their way in the door.
- FACT: 90% of victims are abused by someone they know and trust with abduction scenarios ("Snatch and grab") are a mere fraction of sex crimes.
- FACT: Less than 10% of sexual abusers will EVER encounter the criminal justice system.
- FACT: Child serving organizations are only as strong as their weakest link.These organizations are the most at risk for child sexual abuse. Ministries in particular tend to be trusting in nature, which creates critically low protective barriers - an enticing target for sexual predators.
- FACT: Background checks aren't enough. Vital as they are, they are not a silver bullet and they do have limitations.
- FACT: There are patterns in predatory behavior, known as the abuser's grooming process, that are predictable - therefore, preventable.
- FACT: Predators do not have a specific "look" to them, as they do fly under the radar. They look like you or me. Many abusers come from all segments of society, with many of them being married, have their own families, and are educated. Many appear helpful, trustworthy and responsible.
