Dear Survivors and Supporters,

We wanted to reach out and update you on our progress as the Kansas 2025 Legislative Session comes to a close.  This year we introduced a two part bill in the House that would allow survivors of substantiated abuse access to their own DCF records and extend the Civil Statute of Limitations for Child Sexual Abuse from age 31-55.  Despite our best efforts and support from many Legislators, Survivors, and various organizations, the bill was denied a hearing and will not be passed this year.  

The Senate Judiciary Chair has made it clear that she will not allow us to extend the civil statute of limitations beyond 31 years.  We have decided to pursue a new direction for our legislative efforts for next year and focus on supporting survivors and prevention.  We will hopefully come back to working on statute of limitations in the future.

Over the next year we will focus on three critical initiatives:

  1. Access to DCF Records: Survivors deserve access to their Department for Children and Families (DCF) records when there is substantiated evidence of abuse. These records are essential for healing, seeking justice, and understanding our past.

  2. Education and Prevention: We are dedicated to breaking the silence and raising awareness about how to keep Kansas kids safe from predators. Public education is key to preventing abuse and protecting future generations.  

  3. Erin's Law: We are excited to announce that we plan to advocate for Erin's Law.  Erin's law would require Kansas Schools to provide Body Safety Education to students K-12 one day a year.  It would also provide information to teachers and school staff about how to handle disclosures of abuse.  The Erin's Law Foundation also provides a free curriculum that schools can use to teach students and teachers about body safety.  Studies have shown that children who are educated about body safety are more likely to feel safe coming forward and disclosing to a safe adult.  If we can help children to feel safe about disclosing we can help prevent future children from being abused.

How You Can Help:

  1. Help Us Find Speaking Opportunities
    We are ready to share our stories and our legislative work across Kansas. Do you attend or organize meetings, events, or gatherings that need speakers? Invite us to come speak and raise awareness. We are willing to travel across the state to make sure our voices are heard.

  2. Share Our Posts on Social Media
    Help us amplify our message! Follow us on Facebook  and Instagram, and share our posts with your network. The more people who hear about our mission, the more impact we can have. Every share helps raise awareness and build support for our cause.

  3. Send us a quote about your experience being a survivor for our Survivors' Breaking The Silence posts.  You can use your first name or be left anonymous.


  1. Contact us if you're interested in telling your story to be featured in one of our Survivor Spotlights.


  1. Help us expand our Survivors' Photo Collage. Send us a photo of yourself at the time when your abuse occurred along w/the age when you were abused and the age when you disclosed. Only your first name will be used (you can even send us a different name). 


  1. Contact Your Legislators and Candidates
    Your voice matters. Contact your state legislators and any candidates running for office and ask them to support our efforts to protect survivors and prevent child sexual abuse. Let them know that this issue is important to you and that Kansas needs to make changes to ensure justice for survivors. You can find your legislators and their contact information at pluralpolicy.org.  

-Current Legislation that could help protect children and/or support survivors:

  1. HB2183: Modernizes the legal definition of multiple sex crimes:

    1. Sexual Exploitation of a Child: Criminalize using AI to make a picture of a real child into CSAM (child sexual abuse material or child pornography).

    2. Unlawful Transmission of a Visual Depiction of a Child: Criminalize transmitting a nude visual of someone between 14 and 17 years old by someone who is 18 or younger (known as revenge porn among high schoolers).

    3. Breach of Privacy: Include content that is digitally altered to appear to be an identifiable person (also known as revenge porn).

  2. HB2164: (Senate Sub): Prohibits sex offenders over 18 who have been convicted of child sex crimes from entering school property or attending school activities.

  3. SB186: Sets a minimum bail for defendants charged with certain violent sex crimes who have been previously convicted of a violent crime.


  1. Join Us at the State Capitol (2026)

We will be tabling at the Kansas State Capitol every week during the legislative session to advocate for our causes. We need your presence! If you're able, come join us as we speak to lawmakers, distribute information, and show the strength of our community. Your voice and support will make a huge impact.

  1. Donate

We will be needing to print new brochures and signage for public education. Donate here to help cover those costs.

   9.  Attend Community Events with us: April is Child Abuse Prevention and Sexual Assault Awareness Month.  We will be tabling at various events in the community.  We   will try to post community events on our FB page.  A currently scheduled opportunity includes the Leavenworth Child Abuse Prevention Kick Off: Friday April 4th from 4-6 PM at Ten Penny Bar and Grill in Leavenworth KS. 

Together, we can make Kansas a safer place for our children and create a path to healing and justice for survivors.

We are incredibly grateful for your support. It is your advocacy and involvement that make these changes possible.

Thank you,


-Kim Bergman and Tess Ramirez

Protecting KS Children From Sexual Predators


P.S. If you have any questions or need more information, please don't hesitate to reach out. Every step forward is a step closer to making Kansas safer for all children.

Hi Henry,

Hope you're doing well. I just wanted to let you know that today's my son's baptism. It's untimely to tell you this but I still want you to be on the list as one of his Godparents. Also, upon registration of his baptism, the church asks for donation from his Godparents to be shouldered by us parents.

It is also unfortunate to not have been able to work for the past few weeks due to my unexpected hospitalization. And in kind request, with big humiliation, I would be down to earth asking for a donation for his baptism.

I appreciate your unending understanding and kindness.

All the best,
- Jame

kora

The Kansas Open Records Act (KORA), codified under K.S.A. 45-215 et seq., establishes a presumption that public records are open for inspection unless specifically exempted. However, there are several exceptions where records can be withheld, either mandatorily or at the discretion of the public agency. These exceptions balance the public's right to know with privacy, safety, and administrative concerns. Below is an explanation of the key exceptions:
Mandatory Exceptions
Certain records must be closed to the public under KORA. These are outlined primarily in K.S.A. 45-221(a) and other state or federal laws. Examples include:
  1. Personnel Records: Information about an individual employee's performance, discipline, or personal data (like home addresses or Social Security numbers) is exempt, except for the employee's name, position, salary, and length of service.
  2. Medical and Treatment Records: Records containing private health information, such as those held by public hospitals or health departments, are protected.
  3. Criminal Investigation Records: Ongoing investigation files or records that could jeopardize law enforcement efforts are closed, though some basic incident information (e.g., date, time, and nature of a crime) may still be released.
  4. Attorney-Client Privileged Communications: Legal advice or documents prepared for litigation between a public agency and its attorneys are exempt.
  5. Records Protected by Federal Law: Any records that must remain confidential under federal statutes (e.g., Social Security numbers under the Privacy Act) are not subject to disclosure.
Discretionary Exceptions
KORA also allows agencies to withhold certain records at their discretion, though they are not required to do so. These are also listed in K.S.A. 45-221(a) and include:
  1. Preliminary Working Papers and Drafts: Notes, memos, or drafts used by an agency before finalizing a decision or policy can be withheld to protect the deliberative process.
  2. Records of Private Individuals Given in Confidence: If someone provides information to an agency with an expectation of confidentiality (e.g., whistleblower tips), the agency may choose to keep it closed.
  3. Trade Secrets and Proprietary Information: Business data submitted to a public agency (e.g., bids or economic development plans) can be withheld if its release would harm the business or the public interest.
  4. Security-Related Records: Information about security plans, procedures, or vulnerabilities (e.g., for public buildings or utilities) can be kept confidential if disclosure would pose a risk.
  5. Personal Privacy Interests: Records that, if released, would constitute a "clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy" may be withheld, such as detailed personal financial information unrelated to public employment.
Other Considerations
  • Closed by Other Statutes: Beyond KORA's specific exemptions, other Kansas laws may close certain records. For example, juvenile court records or adoption records are sealed under separate statutes.
  • Partial Redaction: If only part of a record is exempt, the agency must redact the exempt portion and provide the rest (K.S.A. 45-221(d)).
  • Public Interest Override: Even if a record falls under a discretionary exception, an agency might still release it if doing so serves the public interest, though this is not required.
Practical Application
If a requester is denied access, the agency must cite the specific legal basis for the denial (K.S.A. 45-218(e)). Denials can be challenged in court, where a judge will determine if the exception applies. Notably, KORA's exceptions are interpreted narrowly—courts favor disclosure unless the exemption clearly fits.
Let me know if you'd like a deeper dive into any specific exception or how they've been applied in practice!
