Why Support Darkness to Light?
Darkness to Light has trained over 2.4 million adults on how to prevent and recognize child sexual abuse and we are just getting started...
Our work is guided by the vision of a world free from child sexual abuse, where children can grow up happy, healthy, and safe. We know that prevention is possible, and we believe that it is an adult's responsibility to make choices that protect children, enabling them to live well-adjusted lives to their full potential.
Our evidence-informed Stewards of Children® training—one of the only adult-focused child sexual abuse prevention programs in the United States—has been proven to increase knowledge and change behavior. By equipping individuals and organizations, we help communities take proactive steps toward creating safer environments for children.

Darkness to Light is proud to be an Official Charity Partner of the 2025 TCS New York City Marathon!
On November 2, 2025, our team of four passionate runners will lace up and take on the incredible challenge of the TCS New York City Marathon, all while supporting our mission to empower adults to protect children from sexual abuse.
Child sexual abuse knows no boundaries—it affects every community, every race, every religion, and every socioeconomic status. The stark reality? 1 in 10 children will experience sexual abuse before their 18th birthday. This means, every year, millions of children endure the unthinkable, and the trauma doesn’t just end in childhood. It ripples through their entire lives, leading to mental health struggles, addiction, and even higher risks of suicide.
But together, we are working to change this.
Darkness to Light believes that prevention is possible, and that through education and stigma reduction children everywhere can grow up free from harm.
Whether you run, donate, or cheer from the sidelines, your support fuels prevention, education, and hope.
Will you join our collective pursuit of a brighter and safer future for all children?
