Circles of Safety: Awareness to Action for Youth-Serving Professionals
Stop It Now! prevents the sexual abuse of children by mobilizing adults, families and communities to take actions that protect children before they are harmed.
We provide support, information and resources to keep children safe and create healthier communities. Since 1992, we have identified, refined and shared effective ways for individuals, families and communities to act to prevent child sexual abuse before children are harmed – and to get help for everyone involved.
This core training equips youth-serving professionals to prevent child sex abuse through learning how to strengthen protective factors that support children’s healthy and safe sexual development, identify and respond to warning signs in children and adult’s behaviors in their programs, and design safety plans to address safe boundaries, privacy, consent and respect. This course is a mix of lecture, discussion, reflection, and exercises. It is strongly recommended that participants are on-camera throughout the training to facilitate an engaging online classroom experience.
This is a 12-hour virtual training, delivered over 4 days.
In four (4) online classes everyday throughout the week, attendees will become better prepared to support children’s healthy and safe sexual development, identify and respond to warning signs in children and adult’s behaviors in their programs, and design safety plans to address safe boundaries, privacy, consent and respect.
