About the Show
The award-winning One in Ten podcast, now in its eighth season, is powered and produced by National Children’s Alliance (NCA). This social science podcast was first launched on May 2, 2019, after our host, NCA CEO, and podcast enthusiast Teresa Huizar, couldn’t find any shows that were directly linked to child abuse and the latest science surrounding the issue. Teresa wanted to create a go-to resource for child abuse professionals, giving them access to the brightest minds dealing with the problem of child abuse. You’re invited to listen to our podcast and get the latest science and overall insights on keeping children safe and helping them heal.
One in Ten was a 2026 dotCOMM Awards Gold Winner for Best Cause Related Podcast. The dotCOMM Awards are international competition honoring excellence in web creativity, digital communication, and marketing, “recogniz[ing] the individuals, companies, and organizations whose innovative work is helping shape the future of digital communications.” This is One in Ten’s first award, and highly competitive, selected from among some 2,000 entries from 24 countries. Congratulations to the One in Ten team!
