Welcome to
Help Wanted

Help Wanted is an online course to provide help to people attracted to younger children.

Our goal is to give you some tools to support your commitment to strengthen your overall well-being and keep kids safe.

Supporting someone who needs help? We have resources available to help friends and families support their loved ones in staying safe.

What people are saying

“[Help Wanted] helped remind me that I'm not alone in knowing that I'm attracted to children, but have never and will never hurt them and that I am indeed trying my best.”
“I felt very respected by the content…especially by hearing stories from other minor-attracted individuals.”
“It's so good listening to this. Just makes me so emotional. Knowing that I'm not alone. And that I can handle this...Thank you guys so much again, this really means a lot for me.”

If you are attracted to younger children, there are a few things we want you to know before you explore this site:

  • You are not defined by your attraction to younger children.
  • You deserve good health and happiness.
  • You can help keep children safe from child sexual abuse.
  • You are not alone.
