Children's Advocacy Work
Stefanie is currently working on passing a new bill, the Children's Priority Act, which will limit the number of continuances allowed in legal cases involving child abuse. It’s going to be a long, slow, and most likely difficult road, but it will be worth it.
If you or someone you know would like to be involved, please contact Stefanie directly.
You're Beautiful When National Book Campaign
We reached our goal! Thanks to the immense generosity of friends and community members, Stefanie's very first fundraiser was a success. Through door-to-door campaigning, working the local markets, and GoFundMe, together we raised enough money to distribute Stefanie's beloved book, You're Beautiful When, to Children's Advocacy Centers across the US. Each CAC serves as a place of healing for young victims of violence, neglect, and sexual abuse.
You're Beautiful When will serve to encourage these children's self-esteem and body image, with every page reminding them of how beautiful they are. In their ever-deserving hands, You're Beautiful When is exactly where it's meant to be. Every page an affirmation; every book a purpose fulfilled.
Stefanie extends her tremendous gratitude to everyone who pitched in to make this dream a reality. She knows the value of every dollar received. This fundraiser didn't reach its goal through high-rollers or corporate sponsorship. Individual people with great big hearts - that's who made this happen. Thank you!!
