Fighting Child Abuse Through Education, Detection and Referral

A National and Global Epidemic

It’s in the headlines every day now. Child sexual abuse is one of the most serious problems affecting our children, families and communities, causing devastating suffering and long-term consequences. Statistics show that 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 5 boys will have experienced sexual abuse by the time they are 18 years old. (Center for Disease Control and Prevention 2006) Children of both genders, and every age, ethnicity, socioeconomic status and family structure are at risk. Yet this form of abuse is still regarded in many communities as “taboo” and something to be ignored.
Beyond Taboo: Our Responsibility to Protect Children

Awareness + Education + Empowerment + Love

Collective silence has caused grave damage to million of children, and protects the abuser. Together, we can do a much better job of learning about an insidious form of abuse and teach kids to better protect themselves.

Stop Abuse was formed in 1986 to prevent child sexual abuse through education, detection and referral. Through its research-based Emmy award-winning marionette program, “Simon Says, ‘Just Tell’” schoolchildren from kindergarten through Grade 5 learn to recognize, prevent and disclose abuse in a safe environment.

EPM is a US-based global leader in IP development and supplier of stable cannabinoid acid molecules. EPM was founded to address two critical but largely unknown needs: unlocking the potential of cannabinoid acids and bridging the gap between the pharmaceutical and cannabis industries.

We are at the forefront of conducting groundbreaking research into cannabinoid acid molecules for use in the development of medicines. We strive to accomplish our motto: “Help people live a better life” by unlocking the potential of cannabinoid acids, to develop new pharmaceutical innovations that will help enhance human health.

Our Science:

Cannabinoid acids are the source of all known cannabinoids. The potency of the acids known to be extremely high but due to its instability they break into cannabinoids easily, posing major challenges for use in medical research.

Our scientific team, led by Prof. Raphael Mechoulam, was able to industrialize a formula to manufacture stable cannabinoid acids commercially, without having to use the plant or its products.

We have conducted ground-breaking research using cannabinoid acids. As proof of concept EPM evaluated the potency of the acids in Autoimmune, Inflammatory, Skin and Metabolic Disorders – all showing great potential. EPM introduces a new generation of cannabinoid stable acids, protected by a patent portfolio, with proven superior activity over known cannabinoids.

Our Platform:

EPM has decided to collaborate and share its patented cannabinoid-acids API and developments through its proprietary and unique licensing platform. Companies and research institutes can apply for a license and apply our innovations into their own developments.

We are seeking to foster an environment for the collaboration and development of new therapies and treatments. Show less
