His daughter jessica is the namesake for "jessica's law and it was her abduction, rape and murder at the hands of a twice-convicted sex offender that provided the impetus to seek stricter laws against Child predators.we work with mark lunsford and other victims to promote mandatory minimum sentences and electronic monitoring for convicted sex offenders, and to ensure that "jessica's law" gets implemented in all 50 states. Scp organizes policy experts, law enforcement officers, community leaders and parents to launch state-by-state campaigns designed to educate lawmakers and the public about policy changes to monitor Child Predators and enact stronger and more effective policies. For example, we have been invited to appear before various legislative committees to offer expert testimony; most recently, in 2014, before the new jersey assembly judiciary committee and the Colorado house state, veteran's affairs & military committee. Scp also partners with other Child safety organizations and law enforcement agencies that share our commitment to Child safety. Collaborative efforts help to increase awareness and maximize results that benefit everyone. Scp recognizes january 28th as data privacy day; april as national Child abuse prevention month; may 25th as national missing children's day; june as national internet safety month; and october as national cyber security awareness month.
Ii. Stop internet Predators scp launched Stop internet Predators in 2008 to educate parents and communities on emerging online Child safety issues and to empower them to protect their children's privacy and safety. In that same year, we passed model legislation aimed at controlling and pursuing online Child Predators; 12 states have adopted provisions in the model bill, which can be found here: httpwwwstopchildpredatorsorglegis... internet Predators also closely monitors internet technologies and online social networking applications that might pose a risk to children's safety. To that end, we develop and implement online safety education and awareness programs that empower parents, educate children, and help reduce the occurrence of internet crimes against children. Scp has helped several communities across the nation launch educational programs about internet safety. For example, in august 2009, scp brought together leading safety experts in orlando, Florida to discuss the importance of educating children and their parents about online safety. The summit was part of a series launched by scp the summer before to bring together lawmakers, law enforcement, school officials, and advocacy and Child abuse prevention organizations to unveil a broad set of recommendations for how to protect children online. Scp also recognizes that the use of the internet to disseminate Child pornography is a pervasive problem. Read Stop Child Predators' publication, "p2p file sharing: pandora's box of Child porn?"
