Look for signs, be aware. Don't think because you know someone, they wouldn't abuse. Some of the ones you think are the nicest people in the world are child abusers. |
Talk to your child, ask them questions, pay attention to changes in their behavior or types of friends they run around with. This can be a really important endeavor in keeping our children safe. |
The best thing is the team targets children with information on how to keep themselves safe. After teaching a class, instructors ask children to write them a note. This gives children a chance to tell someone what happened to them without it being public knowledge in the classroom in front of their peers. It also gives the team a chance to make sure the children received (the information) all right. |
The child was absolutely devastated. It took me a while to get her to open up and tell me what happened. I am hoping that she will start some counseling so that she can begin to heal. |
There is hope out here for victims of family violence, but I can help someone who doesn't call. I urge anyone who feels they are a victim of family violence to contact me, immediately. |
This job is very rewarding. All of the hard work is worth it, if I can just help one person. |
We have children who need to be fed, and some are so neglected that they badly need showers. |
