Training
Educators
The Kids in the Know safety program is designed to empower children and reduce their risk of victimization. It is an innovative program that identifies risks as they relate to the sexual exploitation and disappearance (runaways and abductions) of children. Using techniques to help children and youth identify high risk behaviors and practicing assertiveness skills, it combines interactive lessons with activities to help give children the tools to keep themselves safe.
The Canadian Centre for Child Protection offers training to educators who plan to introduce the program to their students. Training includes:
- An overview of sexual exploitation
- Current trends, research and statistics on victimization
- Cybertip.ca case studies
- How to successfully implement the program at any grade level
Presentations are given in half day and full day sessions.
