HelpWanted – The Help Wanted project is an online course to provide help to adolescents and young adults attracted to younger children. The goal is to give people some tools to support their commitment to living a safe, healthy, non-offending life.

Shorespace – Shorespace, created by Lucy Faithful Foundation, offers a chat service available at certain times, where adolescents can connect with an experienced advisor. The advisor will listen without judgment and provide information and advice about having sexually thoughts or feelings about younger children. 

Dreaming of Them – Just dreaming of them is offered from The German Project Dunkelfeld, providing non judgmental and free help via email or telephone for adolescence sexually interested in children.

What’s OK ? Stop It Now! – The website What’s OK? provides confidential resources and support for individuals, including youth, who are concerned about their sexual behavior or attractions and has a US phoneline, an online chat option and an email option to contact someone.

These platforms offer information, support, and guidance tailored to the unique experiences and needs of adolescents. They provide a safe space to explore your feelings, find answers to your questions, and learn about healthy relationships and behaviors.

Remember, seeking help is a brave and positive step. You’re not alone, and there are caring professionals ready to support you without judgment. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure, please reach out to a trusted adult or use one of these resources for assistance.
