Sandra Dawn Potter is the CEO and Founder of Dreamcatchers for Abused Children, an official child abuse and neglect awareness organization, educating the public on the signs, symptoms, statistics, prevention and recovery of child abuse.

Sandra came from a small town and her family provided care for her young daughter. She felt comfortable knowing her child would be safe, as she struggled working the night shift. Their lives were permanently changed when Sandra walked-in and caught her stepfather molesting her daughter.

Sandra felt every emotion possible and wanted this man to pay for his actions. He confessed to molesting her daughter for three years. He was prosecuted and sentenced to 15 years in jail, but to a mother who’s daughter’s innocence was stolen, it wasn’t enough.

This man’s wrongful actions cost Sandra everything, but she refused to compromise her daughter or remain silent. It was then Sandra knew she needed to help children- those without a voice. Determined to help children without a voice, Sandra took a stand and became that voice, creating Dreamcatchers for Abused Children.

Last year, Dreamcatchers for Abused Children reached out to over 75,000 men, women and children.

Each spend eight to twelve hours a day, volunteering their time by answering letters, taking phone calls, providing education through books & BlogTalk Radio shows and helping victims seeking recovery, all in hopes of educating just one more person. For each person educated, there is a great possibility that another child will not have to suffer, as Sandra and her family had.
