The Backyard Broadcast youth leadership program is a competitive, yearlong commitment that brings together teens (rising juniors and seniors) from across North America to build a grassroots movement focused on combating the sexual exploitation of children throughout the United States and Canada. The Backyard Broadcast is a youth campaign put on by Child Rescue Association of North America.The Backyard Broadcast's mission is to empower youth to broadcast the message that the sexual exploitation of children is not just taking place far from our borders, but in our own backyards. Inspired by the youth of the underground resistance movements that played such an impactful role in World War II by broadcasting the truth of the war, the youth of our generation are charged with a new broadcast: that perpetrators of terrible crimes against children have been getting away with lenient punishments for far too long. A new strategy and mentality is needed to defeat the child sex trafficking industry – our youth will be widespread across our nations, broadcasting locally in the backyards of all who need to hear it.
