Worldwide, one in two children ages 2-17 years suffered violence in the past year. Violence against children includes all forms of violence against people under 18 years old. Physical and sexual abuse are common, but emotional abuse is one of the most common forms of child maltreatment. The ENDitNOW initiative is an effort of the Adventist church to speak up and advocate against violence of all forms, including violence toward children.
