The Twelve Project

📽️ WE’VE WAITED TOO LONG

Three survivors. Three stories. One urgent call for prevention.

If we are to end childhood sexual violence, the voices of those who understand its consequences must help shape prevention.

That’s why MOORE | Preventing Child Sexual Abuse and commissioned ’We’ve Waited Too Long,’ a series of survivor stories that features three incredible individuals - Chris, Trinae, and Kevin - who have experienced abuse, survived, and become fearless and visionary advocates for prevention.

Their message? 📢 It’s not okay to look away. What will you do today?

This fall will bring ‘We’ve Waited Too Long’ to three major events driving momentum and action for prevention. Join at…

📍Association for the Treatment and Prevention of Sexual Abuse 2026: ‘A Mission in Motion’, October 1, Detroit | USA

📍SVRI Forum 2026, October 6, Bangkok | Thailand

📍2nd Global Ministerial Conference on Ending Violence Against Children, November 16, Manila | Philippines

Stay tuned for more information on exclusive screenings and public launch.

Child sexual abuse is preventable, not inevitable.

Nothing changes until you do, pick your weight.

For the first time in my speaking career, I participated in a conference for professionals, educators, and industry leaders on supporting men and boys who have experienced abuse. I connected with some amazing individuals, and delivered a new workshop ‘Becoming Clark Kent.’ Thank you Cleveland R**e Crisis Center for holding space to have these difficult and much needed conversations.

When good people come together, great things happen! CASA of Scott’s Bluff County and CAPstone Child Advocacy Center are shining examples of this. Thank you for inviting me to be your 2026 Light of Hope fundraiser speaker. Continue to do great things.

Networking was at an all time high! We met so many people at the 32nd Georgia Commission on Family Violence (GCFV) conference. Don’t be a stranger if our paths cross again in the future.

Thank you for inviting me to provide the opening keynote at the CASA Conference. Everyone has a story and you are helping to rewrite a child’s story by being that consistent and trusted adult in their life.

That one time my wife was deliriously sleepy 💤 in Iowa but wanted the photo op. I can’t take her anywhere! Ok that’s not true, I love having her travel with me to speaking engagements. But if I have to stop 🛑 one more time to take a picture…📸

“No matter how well it was built, no matter how many people gathered around it, an untended fire burns down to nothing…🔥Fire dies without fuel, keeping fire alive was never a single act, it was a practice, and it still is…The work you do runs on the same law…Something in you got lit…that is your fire🔥…Sound the Alarm was written because too many people wait until ‘the fire’ is already out to say anything. This workbook exists so you notice the flame getting low and you know exactly what to do about it long before anyone has to ‘sound the alarm’ at all.”🚨

“What if I told you that you can hear trauma long before you can see it. Then why don’t we listen?” ~Kevin McNeil
