Safe Kids Thrive Training

Safe Kids Thrive Training

Youth-serving organizations (YSOs) across Massachusetts support healthy child development in our communities in a multitude of ways, yet share one essential, universal duty: to provide safety and security for the children they serve. Join this 90-minute interactive workshop to learn how to identify concrete ways your program can evaluate and develop policies, procedures, and protocols to prevent sexual abuse. Using a new website called “Safe Kids Thrive” (see safekidsthrive.org), presenters will demonstrate practical and straightforward tools attendees will use to assess or create their own plan to promote child safety.

Learning Objectives:

1. Participants will review how to recognize, respond, and report child abuse.
2. Participants will build awareness of tools, resources, model documents, and practices that prevent child abuse in youth-serving organizations.
3. Participants will plan next steps for their own work using a policy self-audit tool on SafeKidsThrive.org and group discussion.

Thursday, September 28th from 9:30 am – 11:00 am EST.
