Imaginif…you could find a host of child abuse articles in one place. No more searching or hours spent sorting through those sites that just grab key words and offer nothing helpful. Well…you can have one site with multiple writers and articles: the bi monthly Carnival Against Child Abuse

Annaleigh from Blessed Fearscapes (Going to our darkest places, and finding healing…) has hosted the The 8th Edition of the Blog Carnival Against Child Abuse! And what a terrific job she’s done at pulling it all together. Eleven different writers, fourteen articles on child abuse and a plethora of moving, stimulating and research based articles.

I teach part-time in social work. All of my students leave our subjects with a good dose of knowledge around best practice in sexual assault and child focused work. Carnivals are a great place to find the realities of life for survivors and anecdotal research on child abuse. I will be pointing my students toward spending some time in the carnivals and walking in the shoes of people affected by child abuse. For those doing research papers in the area don’t overlook the value of contacting some of these people and talking with them about what happened, who helped, what would have made a difference, etc. A community of survivors is a rich and untapped market of thoughts on prevention and action.

Congratulations to every single writer who has an article in The 8th Edition of the Blog Carnival Against Child Abuse. Particular congratulations to Annaleigh for hosting and doing a terrific job in presenting the information.

Hosting a carnival is a great way to increase traffic to your site and to get your work known. Would you like to host a carnival on your site?
