The Martha H. Beeman Foundation Supports Stewards of Children

The Martha H. Beeman Foundation recently awarded $8,000 to the Child Advocacy Center of Niagara to support the CAC’s Stewards of Children sexual abuse prevention program. Stewards of Children is a revolutionary sexual abuse prevent training program developed by Darkness to Light® that teaches adults to prevent, recognize, and react responsibly to child sexual abuse. The program is designed for organizations that serve children and youth and believes and teaches that child safety is an adult’s job. The Child Advocacy Center has three trained facilitators on staff and has trained approximately 250 community members since beginning the program in 2007. 

The Martha H. Beeman Foundation and Beeman clinics were established in 1930 through the generosity and vision of Martha and Marcus Beeman, who donated $500,000 to the city of Niagara Falls “for whatever purpose best served the needs of those Niagara County residents too young to have made their own mistakes.” The Martha H. Beeman Foundation has been a dedicated supporter of Child Advocacy Center programs and services for many years.
