History In 1985 two women inspired by a need in the Mercer County, NJ community launched their own non-profit organization. After working at an existing community non-profit in the rape crisis program, realizing that the requests for help for children were numerous and that a child specific program did not exist, Prevention Education Inc. was created. Meetings began around the dining room table. Six initial Board Members were recruited and grants applications were written. In a matter of months, with funding in place and the coordinated effort of the agency founders, duties were split. One founder served as Executive Director. The second served as the Child Assault Prevention Director inaugurating the first prevention program.
