This is truly one of the best stories you will read this week. These tough bikers have a mission and that mission changes the lives of sexually abused kids, and helps them help themselves by putting their perpetrators in jail. And it works! Watch this video, and share this story.
DAMN.com: BACA, or Bikers Against Child Abuse International has a mission to create safe environments for abused kids. Here we get to meet a BACA crew in Los Angeles and get an inside look as they bring in Mika, a new member to the group.
This motorcycle club goes to great lengths to make kids feel safe and comfortable. These kids have had to deal with horrible situations such as abuse, both physical and sexual.
BACA will pick kids up from the bus and safely escort them to therapy or school. The scene can be pretty odd as you have biker men and women who are now playing with barbie dolls and acting like kids themselves. Anything to put the children at ease and make them feel comfortable, while hopefully having some fun as well!
Beyond the escorting services, BACA does something that is really amazing. They show up at courtroom cases where child victims have to get on the stand by themselves and then testify against their abusers. A horribly daunting task to say the least. The victim has to face the abuser in court and the intimidation can be overwhelming. But when you have a bunch of bikers who are there to have your back, then it makes things go a whole lot smoother. The kids feel comfortable, safe and secure, and they are able to testify with relative ease knowing they have this strong support system right in the same room with them.
Really an amazing service!
Share the good deeds these bikers are doing with all of your friends and family!
