A report of child abuse is made every ten seconds.
Almost five children die every day as a result of child abuse. More than three out of four are under the age of 4.
Child abuse occurs at every socioeconomic level, across ethnic and cultural lines, within all religions and at all levels of education.
It is estimated that between 60-85% of child fatalities due to maltreatment are not recorded as such on death certificates.
90% of child sexual abuse victims know the perpetrator in some way; 68% are abused by family members.
About 80% of 21-year-olds that were abused as children met criteria for at least one psychological disorder.
About 30% of abused and neglected children will later abuse their own children, continuing the cycle.
