ASACP Tees Up for Phoenix Forum

LOS ANGELES – The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) has announced that it will be visible both on stage and on the green at the upcoming 2006 Phoenix Forum in Tempe, Ariz.

This year, the Phoenix Forum’s 2nd Annual Golf Tournament will benefit both ASACP and the Free Speech Coalition. The event will take place at the Phantom Horse Golf Club on Wednesday, March 29, the day before the main Forum kicks off. The tournament starts at 1:00 p.m. “We’re grateful to event sponsor GigaCash/FeedsNow for coming up with such a fun way to raise both money and awareness,” said ASACP Executive Director Joan Irvine. “We hope to see plenty of ASACP supporters teeing off!”

Ms. Irvine will also be participating in a Legal Review panel on Saturday, April 1 at 3:15 p.m. She will join industry attorneys as they present updates on legal issues that adult webmaster need to be aware of, including 2257, the DMCA, obscenity standards and rating systems. The panel will be moderated by Tom Hymes of the Free Speech Coalition, and will also feature Chad Belville, Eric Bernstein, Jeffrey Douglas, John Flynn, Greg Piccionelli and Larry Walters.

Now in its seventh year, the Phoenix Forum provides adult webmasters and service providers with networking, educational and promotional opportunities. Last year’s event attracted more than 950 participants from all over the world. According to Irvine, this makes the Forum an ideal venue for ASACP to spread the word about its activities. “ASACP is now celebrating its tenth year of helping the online adult industry protect kids, and the Phoenix Forum is always a great place for us to reach out and get more people involved.”

Founded in 1996, the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) is a non-profit organization dedicated to eliminating child pornography from the Internet. ASACP battles child pornography through its CP reporting hotline, and by organizing the efforts of the online adult industry to combat the heinous crime of child sexual abuse.
