Arizonans for the Protection of Children Charity Profile
APECA mobilizes people and resources in the fight against sexual exploitation and abuse. Our vision: a world that protects children and adults from exploitation and abuse and values everyone. APECA has been incorporated since 2003.
When completed, APECA's eight-bed home in Arizona will offer a safe haven for girls (ages 11-17) escaping from commercial sexual exploitation and abuse. Teens at NATALIE'S HOUSE will receive shelter, food and clothing. In addition, they will have an intensive recovery program including outings and educational strategies to assist them in making the transition to a normal, healthy life.
APECA offers free community awareness trainings and hosts informational tables at schools, organizations and churches to promote awareness of sexual exploitation and abuse/self-abuse of children and adolescents.
