“I believe competitive gymnastics and other elite sports break children”: A Case-Study of Systemic Abuse in Sports Perpetrated by Larry Nassar
CHILD USA formed the Game Over Commission in 2018 to launch the only independent investigation by leading experts to study the Larry Nassar abuse case. The nationally recognized experts on the Commission contributed their time and expertise pro bono to serve the public interest in understanding how Nassar could harm so many girls and women and how so many institutions could let them down.

CHILD USA IN THE NEWS
WHAT WE DO:
CHILD SEX ABUSE AND TRAFFICKING
CHILD USA works to create a safer world for children by reforming the statutes of limitation for child sex abuse, working to end child marriage, and the abuse and neglect of athletes.
EDUCATIONAL NEGLECT
CHILD USA is committed to making sure all children get a quality education, no matter where they live.
MEDICAL NEGLECT & VACCINE AVOIDANCE
Most states have laws giving religious exemptions to testing and screening of children. Federal law requires doctors treating children on Medicaid or CHIP to perform several tests and screening on the children, yet federal law also allows states to offer religious exemptions.
