Tonight's special guest is Margaret (Peggy) Hoffman from Williamsport, Pennsylvania, is an activist and survivor of a toxic family and domestic abuse. Peggy's Native American family suffered multi-generational government oppression and systemic abuses that contributed to growing up in a dysfunctional environment. Her mother had poor health and, after her father took his own life when she was 10, Peggy was raised by multiple family members who were ‘enablers' of abuse. Peggy learned early on about family secrets of incest. Before her current marriage of 22 years, Peggy divorced her first husband after a decade of domestic violence. In 2016, while Peggy's daughter was in the middle of a custody battle, Peggy's 5 yr. old granddaughter disclosed sexual abuse by the father. Although Peggy's daughter did the right things by reporting the abuse to police and a trauma therapist, the courts ultimately disbelieved the allegations, granting custody to the abusive father where her granddaughter still resides today. Peggy says, "Children are the least protected when it comes to sexual abuse.” This systemic failure to protect children who disclose fueled Peggy to dedicate herself to policy reform. She has spent over 1000 hours in training courses and is working as the Pennsylvania director of the Stop Abuse Campaign. She partners with legislators to pass the Safe Child Act and other legislation for family court reform and accountability for legal professionals. According to Peggy, her story has been repeated in about 2.8 percent of custody cases nationwide, with over 7,000 children in Pennsylvania alone ordered into contact or custody of their abuser because of a failing system. Peggy invites listeners to contact her.
Would you be surprised to know that there is no law that says a judge must make a kid's health and safety the first priority when determining custody in a divorce? Every day judges decide where a child will live when the parents divorce. Often they get it wrong, with disastrous results, and those children may be forced to live with someone who has abused or even seuxally assaulted them. Because judges, guardians ad litem, psychologists and other advisors to the courts, don't get it or think the protective parent is lying. It's a tragedy that leaved kids in horrible situations and can set them up for life-long repercussions. The Safe Child Act could change that. Andrew Willis, founder of the Stop Abuse Campaign, and Barry Goldstein, nationally recognized domestic violence author, speaker and advocate, will discuss the Safe Child Act, being considered in several state legislatures as a requirement for child custody decisions. Join us as we talk about how this act could help protective parents, dependent children and the social justice system.
THE SAFE CHILD ACT Would you be surprised to know that there is no law that says a judge has to make a kid’s health and safety the first priority when determining custody in a divorce? Every day judges decide where a child will live when the parents divorce. It’s always a tough decision, and most people make the most of it because they care about their kids. Often they get it wrong, with disastrous results. And those children may be forced to live with someone who has abused or sexually assaulted them. Andrew Willis, founder of the Stop Abuse Campaign, and Barry Goldstein, nationally recognized domestic violence author, speaker and advocate, will join us to talk about the Safe Child Act. This act, being considered by state legislatures in Hawaii, Pennsylvania, New York, Texas, Utah and Washington, would make child health and safety the first priority in determining custody. Andrew was born in Hong Kong went to school in Great Britain and has not stopped travelling ever since. Following time in the British Army, where he reached the rank of Captain, he spent his life practicing integrated marketing communications and marketing, mostly for global brands.

Tonight's special guest is Barry Goldstein from Teaneck, NJ, a returning NAASCA family member who's an expert in Domestic Violence and issues of child abuse. Barry shares. "I was blessed with a happy and safe childhood, but I was the victim of retaliation by the NY Court system which suspended my law license for exposing an abusive judge in my efforts to protect a battered mother and her children." The co-chair of the child custody task force of the National Organization for Men Against Sexism, Barry does workshops and provides judicial and other trainings regarding domestic violence particularly related to custody issues. He's also the author of "Scared to Leave, Afraid to Stay," co-editor of "Domestic Violence Abuse and Child Custody" with Mo Therese Hannah and co-author with Elizabeth Liu of "Representing the Domestic Violence Survivor." His newest book is "The Quincy Solution: Stop Domestic Violence and Save $500 Billion," which would dramatically reduce DV crime and child abuse and save enormous sums of money. Barry will also talk about the Safe Child Act which he believes will be very interesting to our listeners, and about the ACE Study (Adverse Childhood Experiences) Research. It strongly supports prevention of child abuse and other child traumas, and definitively establishes that by the time they reach 18, one-quarter of our children have been sexually abused.
