Luisa Melchionne, CT Guidance Counselor Arrested

Perpetrators

Luisa Melchionne, the 47-year-old guidance counselor at Norwalk Public Schools in CT, is facing charges of second-degree sexual assault and two counts of risk of injury to a minor. Melchionne allegedly assaulted the boy during counseling sessions.

Guidance counselors are entrusted with students’ emotional and psychological well-being, providing support and safety. When this trust is shattered by abuse, the victim experiences severe trauma, and the sense of security for all students is compromised. Schools must prioritize stringent background checks and create robust reporting mechanisms to prevent egregious misconduct and ensure a safe, nurturing environment for every child.

Melchionne has been a guidance counselor with the district for 20 years. We encourage you to come forward, as more impacted children are likely out there.

Can a Civil Lawsuit Help Victims Seek Justice for the Trauma They May Have Experienced By Luisa Melchionne?

By initiating legal action, survivors can hold institutions that may have enabled or failed to prevent the abuse accountable for their actions. Civil suits allow victims to seek compensation for the physical, emotional, and psychological harm they have endured.

Additionally, these lawsuits contribute to raising awareness about the prevalence of sexual abuse and fostering a culture that prioritizes the safety and well-being of individuals over organizational interests. As a result, survivors gain a platform to share their experiences.  Thereby challenging the culture of silence surrounding sexual abuse and empowering others to come forward.
