Since the Boy Scouts of America filed for bankruptcy, social justice advocate Bridie Farrell has worked with former Scouts who may have been victims of sexual abuse. She has raised awareness about different legal options, including how Scout sex abuse survivors can file a bankruptcy claim. Farrell, who is a sex abuse survivor and who founded the non-profit "America Loves Kids," has been a consultant for the law firm Motley Rice, which is handling many of those bankruptcy claims. Farrell also discusses the New York Child Victims Act and some of the other sex abuse scandals, and she hopes that by continuing the national discussion on this issue, other survivors will be encouraged to tell their stories as well.
