Safe Shores Launches Stewards of Children Training, January 2007
Five Safe Shores staff members have been trained as facilitators in Darkness to Light's Stewards of Children prevention curriculum. Stewards of Children is a comprehensive, evidence-based sexual abuse prevention training program that educates adults to prevent, recognize, and react responsibly to child sexual abuse.
The core features of the Stewards of Children Training are:
- A video integrating segments of sexual abuse survivors relating their stories of violation and healing, with segments from the author of the curriculum and from professionals who interface daily with the problem of sexual abuse.
- An interactive workbook for each participant.
- Discussion about critical issues in sexual abuse prevention and the relevance of these issues within organizations that serve children and adolescents, led by an authorized facilitator.
- Lists of community resources.
If your organization or agency (i.e. youth-serving, faith-based, school, camp, etc) is interested in receiving the Stewards of Children training, please contact Safe Shores at (202) 638-2575 ext 100.
