Erin’s Law is named after childhood sexual assault survivor, author, speaker and activist Erin Merryn, who is the founder and President of Erin’s Law, which is registered with the State of Illinois and the IRS as a 501 (c)(4) non-profit social welfare organization. After Erin introduced the legislation in her home state of Illinois, the bill was named “Erin’s Law” after her by legislators and it has caught on nationwide. “Erin’s Law” requires that all public schools in each state implement a prevention-oriented child sexual abuse program. Watch Merryn and actor Julianna Margulies, who is being honored by Identification Discovery and People Mag on Nov 2 for her work with both the Brady Campaign to end Gun Violence and Erin’s Law, take the BUILD stage to discuss this incredibly important law.

This popped up in my YT algorithm because I was trying to watch snippets of the The Morning Show. Glad to be more informed and glad for Erin’s Law. Erin Merryn, it is so terrible what you went through as an abused child. Glad that you somehow struggled through it and emerged as a great champion to create Erin’s Law, as I live in Illinois. I also didn’t know that Julianna Margulies was also in the crosshairs of predators, Steven Seagal and Harvey Weinstein, as a young actress. Horrific.

Well this law would have been nice to have had when I was a child. I too was sexually abused by a older cousin and it also was not addressed like it should have. It was shoved under the rug and now I have to go to therapy, I have ptsd, depression and anxiety. I had victims guilt for years and I also have a hard time when I have to have specific medical things done. Parents should also be educated on how to address sexual abuse in children because like they said many adults have no idea how to deal with this topic.

I just wish people that rape people didn't get out of prison so early or get good time or get to rape other people when they get out and be charged more than once. I say one time is one to many. And why do prisoner's get wifi, internet, Facebook, TV's free health care. When we don't get all that free out in the real world. I think people in jail and prison's shouldn't get to sue either, they are supposed to lose all there right's when they get locked up. I'm also a victim of rap from more than one Family member.
