About No More Victims Alliance
The No More Victims Alliance provides the infrastructure and operational support for campaigns and initiatives that prevent harm to children, especially while in the care of organizations meant to protect and nurture them. When a preventable tragedy occurs, No More Victims Alliance works to ensure it leads to meaningful reform — so the suffering stops there, and there are No More Victims.
The Alliance is made up of companion nonprofits, advancing a shared mission in complementary ways. No More Victims Initiative, a 501(c)(3), leads research, education, survivor support, and prevention efforts. No More Victims Advocacy, a 501(c)(4), drives the policy and legislative change needed to keep children safe in institutional settings across the U.S. Together, the Alliance provides the structure, leadership, and momentum to protect kids, empower communities, and create lasting change.
The Alliance currently hosts three campaigns:
- Trey’s Law, which seeks to prohibit the misuse of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) in civil settlement agreements for child sexual abuse (CSA) victims, allowing survivors to freely tell their stories while exposing predators and the institutions that protect them.
- Campaign for Camp Safety, launched by a coalition of parents of the 27 girls (“Heaven’s 27”) who lost their lives in the devastating flood at Camp Mystic on July 4, 2025. From the deepest grief has come a commitment: to ensure other families never suffer the same heartbreak and preventable loss.
- Statute of Limitations Reform, which No More Victims Alliance supports through partnership with organizations across the country to advance statute of limitations reform that supports healing, accountability, and prevention.
