An Unimaginable Act: Overcoming and Preventing Child Abuse Through Erin's Law, by Erin Merryn

With the publication of her first book Erin had achieved national attention and with her newly found celebrity and a drive to protect children, she became an architect for “Erin’s law.” Erin’s law requires states to incorporate education about child abuse into their curriculum from kindergarten through eighth grade.

Through her tireless efforts, Erin Merryn has succeeded in passing Erin’s law in eight states, and fourteen states are introducing the law in 2013-2014. Erin Merryn followed up her first book “Stolen Innocence” with her 2009 book “Living for Today,” where she further chronicled the courage of her struggle to overcome the effects of her abuse as a child.

In 2013 Erin Merryn further plumbed the depths of her battle with the pain of her abuse and bravely revealed hard- kept secrets of her struggle in her third book, “An Unimaginable Act.”
