Stop the Cover-up: CHILD SEXUAL AND PHYSICAL ABUSE AT NEW TRIBES MISSIONS SCHOOL FOR MISSIONARIES’ CHILDREN
Final supporters
CHILD SEXUAL AND PHYSICAL ABUSE AT NEW TRIBES MISSIONS SCHOOL FOR MISSIONARIES’ CHILDREN
In light of the recent reports and findings of child sexual and physical abuse at the NEW TRIBES MISSION school for missionaries’ children in Fanda, Senegal, we, the undersigned, submit this petition to the Executive and Child Protection Committees of New Tribes Mission.
The purpose of this petition is twofold:
1) to insist that New Tribes Mission (hereafter referred to as NTM) employ an outside agency to conduct the investigations of further child sexual and physical abuse allegations at NTM schools, training facilities or other entities under the auspices of NTM, and
2) to raise awareness regarding the ongoing child sexual and physical abuse and cover-up within NTM and provide outside accountability in dealing with these investigations.
Please visit http://fandaeagles.com/2010/08/grace-final-report-on-ntm-fanda/ for the comprehensive, 68-page report completed by GRACE (Godly Response to Abuse in the Christian Environment- www.netgrace.org) on the substantiated findings of child sexual and physical abuse at the Fanda, Senegal school for MKs operated by New Tribes Mission. We invite you to also visit the forums at http://fandaeagles.com/forums/index.php to learn more about child abuse at NTM schools and training facilities worldwide and NTM’s cover-up of the abuse.
New Tribes Mission, an evangelical Christian mission organization based in Sanford, Florida, United States, operates at locations worldwide. As evidenced by the GRACE report, NTM has failed to act in a timely and responsible manner when presented with facts of child abuse at their facilities, has repeatedly covered up the abuse and has allowed the perpetrators to remain unpunished by failing to report these crimes to the proper legal authorities.
Because of this blatant disregard by NTM to act legally and responsibly, not only in reporting these crimes but also in their investigations of the crimes, we, the undersigned, demand that New Tribes Mission employ an outside third-party, at the discretion of the affected MKs, to conduct investigations and make recommendations for the handling of reporting these crimes, further investigations, compensation for the victims and proper avenues for legally reporting the crimes.
Please sign the petition below to show your support for these efforts. This petition will be presented to the New Tribes Mission Executive and Child Protection Committees on November 3, 2010.

Reaching five hundred signatures marks a quiet shift in the visibility of this cause. It is a sobering reminder that the reality of what occurred at these schools is being acknowledged by a growing number of people.

The stories shared in the comments continue to weigh heavily on me as I process the scope of these experiences. I am currently working to ensure this information reaches the oversight committees who have the power to initiate an independent investigation. Your willingness to stand behind this cause provides the necessary pressure to demand transparency.

Reaching this first threshold reminds me that the pain experienced in Fanda is not something people are willing to ignore. These signatures represent a shared commitment to accountability that I find deeply moving.

I was at the school in the 90s and it was a nightmare. Glad more people are finally talking about this stuff bc they just swept it under the rug forever.
just saw this on fb. my heart breaks for everyone who had to go through this. hope justice finally happens.
why wont they just admit what happened. it keeps happening over and over and no one does anything.
THESE PEOPLE NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. My siblings and I have been trying to get someone to listen for years. Enough with the covering up!!

I have so much PTSD from being at Numonohi PNG! Daily beatings, unbelievable sexual abuse —- what can I say? They just sent them back to “the States” and thought they’d resolved it. Victims live forever with the consequences but not the Criminals!
