"An Unimaginable Act is a wake-up call to society on a silent
epidemic one brave confident woman refuses to stay silent about.
Through the trauma and obstacles she has faced in her life, Erin
takes readers on a remarkable journey of resilience, faith,
courage, and forgiveness. She shares how she turned tragedy into
triumph, which has led her on an unstoppable crusade to give
children the voice she never had as a child through a very
important law that will protect children for generations to
come."—Julianna Margulies, Actress
Erin embodies the type of courageous leadership needed to address
today's social justice issues—not only speaking out on behalf of
children suffering abuse, but working to change the law in order to
protect future generations for years to come. As a mother, I
consider her a role model for my three daughters.—Kerry Kennedy
Erin Merryn is a dynamic Christian young lady who shares her tragic
testimony of how she was abused growing up, but once she was able
to open up, God set her free. She is one of the best speakers we
have ever heard and her story will help millions.—Jim Bob and
Michelle Duggar, parents of TLC's 19 Kids and Counting
Erin Merryn: a fearless woman after God's own heart. She has trail
blazed the dark territory of child abuse and has brought a healing
light to the hurting. Her crusade across America, to mandate child
abuse prevention education, is etched on our minds; her spirit and
fearlessness awakes and stirs the hearts of all who are touched by
her compassion. —Michael Reagan
Erin's Law gives our country the chance to ensure that the children
of our nation have the information and tools necessary to recognize
and report abuse. Children need to be informed about sexual
abuse in a structured and safe environment, so that they know there
are people who will help keep them safe. My support of Erin's
Law stems from my own family's history of sexual abuse and their
lack of information on prevention and disclosure. I am proof that
prevention is possible, and so I am grateful to Erin Merryn for
taking the pain she experienced and turning it in to a national
crusade to educate our youth.—Mallory Hagan, Miss America 2013
Thank you Erin. For sharing your story. For standing up for us.
Giving us a voice. Making a difference that will mean our children
and grandchildren and great-grandchildren will have a chance for a
better life. Truly. Amazed. Beyond words.—Taunya Richards
