Bikers Against Child Abuse
What do they call Cyclists against child abuse?
-Drew "Butterfly" wrote in message ... Bikers Against Child Abuse (BACA) is a biker organization formed by bikers, and uses biker philosophy and mentality to create a safer world for children. Bikers Against Child Abuse exists with the intent to create a safer environment for abused children. We exist as a body of bikers empowering children to not feel afraid of the world in which they live. We stand ready to lend support to our wounded friends by involving them with an established, united organization. We work in conjunction with local and state officials that are already in place to protect children. We desire to send a clear message to all involved with the abused child that this child is part of our organization. We are prepared to lend our support to them by affiliation and our physical presence. We do not condone the use of violence or physical force in any manner; however, if circumstances arise that we are the only obstacles preventing a child from further abuse we stand ready to be that obstacle. HOW BACA WORKS A recognized authorized agency with whom the child has had contact determines if the child is still frightened by their environment. The agency representative offers the family or guardian of the abused child a packet of information about BACA. The guardian of the child can review the information and contact BACA. At this time we will organize a ride of perhaps a dozen or so bikers to meet the child, preferably at the child's home or some place where the perpetrator and neighborhood can see that this child is part of our organization. We ride our bikes to meet this child and present them with a patch that can be sewn onto a piece of clothing and the child can wear out in public. This patch identifies this child as part of BACA. The child is also given the name and phone number of two bikers in their home town who then become the child's primary contact persons. Anytime the child feels scared and feels the need for the presence of their new family, the child may call upon their family to go to their house and provide the reassurance necessary to feel safe and protected. The bikers never go to the child's house alone, but will always go in twos and never without the knowledge of the parents or guardians. Our presence will be available as long as the child needs us. We are dedicated in assisting our wounded friends in feeling safe and protected. LEVELS OF INTERVENTION LEVEL I Will consist of the organization deploying a ride, uniting as many BACA members as are able to attend. We will ride as a group to the child's house where the parent(s) will be present to assist us in presenting the child with a patch, stickers, and a Polaroid photograph of the child with his/her new biker family. If the child is afraid, it is our hope the child will use the photograph as a comfort to convey the message "I am not alone, and you don't want to mess with my family." LEVEL II If Level one is not sufficient to deter further abuse or harassment, five to seven BACA members will be sent for further exposure. This group of BACA members are to create a presence at the home of the child, being visible at times when the family might be the most vulnerable. The purpose of BACA's presence is to deter further abuse and to protect the children and the family, if necessary. LEVEL III If the physical presence of our BACA members at the residence of the child's home does not deter the abuser, a formal letter will be drafted by the Chapter President or Vice-President in the area in which the abuser lives. This letter will be written on BACA letterhead. The substance of the letter will be to explain to the perpetrator that we are prepared to take whatever steps are necessary to become the obstacle to further abuse. LEVEL IV While it is against the purpose of BACA to purposely engage a perpetrator, we will ask for the general geographical location of the offender, and conduct a "Neighborhood Awareness Ride" in which we will ride to the general location given to us and go door to door letting people know who we are, hand out stickers to kids, and distribute our literature regarding our mission and how we function. If the location or address of the perpetrator becomes known to any BACA Member, we will immediately withdraw our physical presence to avoid any contact. BACA does not condone, support or participate in the use of aggression, violence or physical force in any manner. If, however, ANY person should seek to inflict harm on one of our BACA Members, we will respond with commitment and loyalty to protect our Member. COURT APPEARANCES Occasionally we will attend court with our wounded friends. The sole purpose for our physical presence is to assist the child in being less intimidated and frightened, while testifying against his/her abuser.
