Are calls confidential? All calls are confidential. Stop It Now! does not have caller ID on our telephone and we are committed to providing confidential help.

Who calls the Helpline? We receive calls from adults concerned about their own behavior, adults concerned about an interaction between an adult or older youth and a child, parents concerned about sexual behaviors in their own children, professionals seeking advice about a specific situation, and adults who want more information about what they can do to prevent the sexual abuse of children.

What if I can't call the Helpline? You may also e-mail the Helpline at info@stopitnow.org HOWEVER, rapidly changing technology makes it impossible for us to guarantee the confidentiality of e-mail correspondence. If you want to ensure confidential help, please call our Helpline at 1.888.PREVENT (1-888-773-8368).

I called the Helpline, but no one answered. We apologize for the inconvenience. However, in order for phone calls to remain confidential, we cannot take messages. Please continue to call until Helpline staff are available.
