Childrens Voices Matter - Article 12-1 of the UN Convention provides courts to establish childrens maturity weighted opinion on deciding who they would like in their lives and to be in charge of their lives! Kentucky needs standardized Full Child Rights Voices in their parental and guardianship situations, currently this is very arbitrary and run by judges as their own opinions hazed over by the term 'Best Interest of the Child' terminology.

Many abused children are returned to homes to be abused by friends of family and even family members themselves. Abuse can take many forms.

                                        Eyes on the Street Program Outline

Flyers in every school, church and grocery store and large shopping malls teaching kids to ask 10 Simple Quick Questions will help identify abused or trafficked victims or potentially targeted victims.

1.)    Do you come and go as you please? Do you know the USA will not deport victims?
 2.)    Can you leave your job or situation if you want?
 3.)    Has anyone threatened you or your family?
 4.)    Do you have to ask permission to go to the bathroom, to eat, sleep?
 5.)    Is there a lock on outside of your bedroom door? Door Locked at Work? Can you leave in an emergency?
 6.)    Do you have friends? Do you go out and socialize? Can you have friends over?
 7.)    Do you have ability to attend services? Authority Alert! YOU WILL NOT BE DEPORTED!
 8.)    Do you have a cell phone? Do you know assistance?
 9.)    Do you know what city and state you live in? Do you know your address? When did you move last? Where did you live before you came here?
 10.) Do you carry identification? Do you have an interpreter that you can trust?
Everyone needs to open their eyes and ears so they can direct victims to help, resources, or programs. Keeping quiet is the serious crime.  Court standards for

Teens know their turf. They can easily identify who is out of place and who is doing something that is not normal in their world. By educating them and empowering them with contact information, law enforcement and intervention agencies may be alerted.
Abuse can be tricky, but signs of abuse are not easily hidden from bright, well alerted and inquisitive teens! Each teen should have access to an Eyes On The Street cell phone, equipped with minutes and speed dial help or agency numbers!
