An Unimaginable Act: Overcoming and Preventing Child Abuse Through Erin's Law

By sharing her personal journey through the pain she has suffered at the hands of her perpetrators author Erin Merryn proves that one person can make a difference in the lives of others. Simply by speaking out and bringing the subject of child sexual abuse to the forefront she has created a wave of change—change not only in legislature but also in the hearts of those around her and the world. In this thought-provoking book readers will discover an in-depth personal account of Erin's story and how—through using positive outlets—she was able to rebuild her life and heal from a childhood filled with sexual abuse. Part memoir part resource guide Erin shares with readers key organizations that provide essential support for victims and caregivers warning signs that a child who is being abused might display and why Erin's Law is so essential.
