A vocal opponent of child abuse and neglect, Bryan Specht maintains a firm commitment to social advocacy work at both the local and national levels. A former campaign advisor for Bill Clinton, Hillary Rodham Clinton, Bill Bradley, and George Mitchell, among others, Mr. Specht leverages his extensive professional affiliations to improve the lives of those who have suffered and survived physical, sexual, emotional, or mental abuse.
Having established a firm foothold in the world of politics as a communications consultant and political leader, Mr. Specht founded the Awful Grace Project and the Promised Land Society, two separate charitable organizations he created to provide much needed support to abuse victims across the country. Today, Mr. Specht juggles a busy schedule overseeing activities at both these organizations, concurrently functioning as Chief Operating Officer and Head of Corporate Affairs at Dig Communications, a marketing consultancy firm based in Chicago, Illinois. Always seeking new approaches to educating the public about child abuse and neglect, Mr. Specht presently holds a position on the national board of directors of Prevent Child Abuse America (PCA America). Striving since 1972 to protect children across the United States from abuse and neglect of any kind, PCA America dedicates its resources to funding a wide array of programs for positive change through its 47 statewide chapters. Although these chapters operate autonomously from PCA America on numerous levels, members share the same mission, vision, and core system of values. With a primary focus of promoting child welfare, strengthening family bonds, and engaging everyday citizens in the battle against child abuse, all PCA America chapters aim to curb the cycle of violence that often begins at home or in a school environment, places where a child should feel safe. Recognizing the necessity of implementing “a continuum of services” specifically designed to foster healthy family dynamics, Bryan Specht and his colleagues on PCA America’s board of directors view early intervention as one of the keys to helping the organization achieve its goals. Read on for more information about child abuse, PCA America, and joining a chapter in your area.
