One Voice, No Fear: Eugene Tossany’s Fight for Children

Ms. Eugene Tossany’s advocacy record spans more than a decade of confronting child exploitation in legislative, community, and law-enforcement spaces. She has communicated with U.S. state senators through the national organization Unchained at Last, urging the end of underage child marriage and providing supportive testimony in Senate hearings across Virginia, New York, Maine, South Carolina, Hawaii, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island. She repeatedly emphasized that child marriage often conceals coercion and is frequently exploited by traffickers as a pathway into abuse.

During the pandemic, Tossany extended her advocacy into frontline support. She reached out to U.S. Marshals offices offering protective face masks for agents working active field operations, including those pursuing online predators and trafficking networks. Her outreach underscored a simple but urgent truth: even in a global health crisis, the individuals hunting child-exploitation offenders cannot pause their mission. Providing essential protective gear ensured agents could continue their work without added risk, reflecting Tossany’s habit of stepping in wherever vulnerable children, or those defending them, need reinforcement.

Tossany later authored and published The Down Syndrome Superhero series (Books 1–3), a body of work promoting a female protagonist with Down Syndrome. The prologue equips parents and caregivers with practical guidance for safeguarding special-needs children. One chapter addresses sexual violence within the main character’s trusted circle, using parental dialogue to highlight preventative education, body image awareness, and protective communication at home. The series was championed by Mikayla Holmgren, a nationally known Down Syndrome beauty pageant contestant and disability advocate.

During her years in Northern Virginia, home to the world’s largest concentration of data centers, Tossany served on a Technology Advisory Council. There, she studied emerging AI legislation, the growing impact of regulatory software, and the intersection between technology, privacy, and public policy. This experience deepened her understanding of how digital vulnerabilities can be exploited by traffickers and why preventative strategies must include tech-literacy for families and first responders.

Her Down Syndrome advocacy expanded beyond the page. Tossany authored a public article spotlighting overlooked Down Syndrome trailblazers working in entertainment, civic leadership, and scientific fields. She also participated in World Down Syndrome Day events, including a community reading of The Down Syndrome Superhero series at a local coffee shop to promote inclusion and literacy.

Her anti-trafficking work continued in collaboration with law enforcement. While residing in Northern Virginia, she contacted the sheriff’s office and introduced the Special Victims Unit lead to Child Rescue Coalition’s investigative software. Their conversations centered on officer training, digital evidence patterns, and strengthening the identification of trafficking networks targeting minors.

Tossany’s literary work also includes The Biokovo Code series (Books 1–2), which follows a female combat veteran unraveling a conspiracy involving federal agencies, encrypted legacies, and interdimensional threats. The protagonist, JET, deciphers messages left by her deceased NSA father; messages that lead her to a hollow mountain used to conceal kidnapped children. The storyline touches on hidden operations, global trafficking pipelines, and moral courage under pressure. Book One received the Regal Summit Award in the mystery/thriller category.

These combined efforts: legislative testimony, disability advocacy, law-enforcement collaboration, trauma-informed writing, and technological literacy, laid the groundwork for the creation of Pietas Coalition Corporation. The organization represents the culmination of Tossany’s professional relationships, field experience, and unwavering commitment to statewide child safety.
