Former Florida Lawmaker Lauren Book Walks to Raise Awareness for Child Sexual Abuse
Former Florida Senator Lauren Book is embarking on an inspiring journey across the Sunshine State to raise awareness about child sexual abuse. Book, who is now the CEO of Lauren's Kids, a non-profit dedicated to preventing child sexual abuse, is walking from Key West to Tallahassee. This year marks the 10th anniversary of her annual 1,500-mile trek, which she began in 2014 to educate communities and promote prevention strategies.
During National Child Abuse Prevention Month, Book's walk gains additional significance. She aims to highlight the importance of protecting children and providing them with safer environments. Throughout her journey, Book will stop at various locations to engage with local communities, sharing resources and strategies to prevent child sexual abuse.
The walk has garnered support from various organizations and individuals across Florida. Lauren's Kids has been instrumental in pushing for legislative changes and providing educational materials to schools and families. Book's dedication to this cause has helped countless children and families, making her a pivotal figure in the fight against child sexual abuse.
