Say NO! and TELL!: Training Grown-ups in Boundaries and Personal Safety for Kids

For faith-based audiences. Shining the light into the darkness of child sexual abuse by spreading the message of prevention through boundaries and personal safety training takes commitment and bravery. Our children, families, and society pay a price when a child is sexually abused because the ramifications effect the health of the communities we live in every day. We as parents, safe caregivers, and trusted grown-ups must act now to protect our children and stop this epidemic! It is time to stand guard, empower one another, and preserve the innocence of generations to come by learning boundaries and personal safety for kids. Using the Say NO! and TELL! training workbook, we can learn how to take action in a THREE-phased™ process: create awareness of the problem, educate to equip grownups and kids for preventative action, and develop intervention procedures to prevent questionable encounters by teaching grown-ups and children about boundaries and personal safety (prevention of child sexual abuse). Presenters and participants alike will be empowered to multiply the message of preventing child sexual abuse with boundaries and personal safety training. The training is easy to replicate with customizable content for your organization.

This short but effective, user-friendly training workbook for grown-ups can empower and protect kids by helping your church, school, or sport or youth organization:

• Explore and implement preventative safeguards

• Design a code of conduct for interacting with children

• Recognize signs and symptoms of child sexual abuse
