A Safer Family. A Safer World.: A Resource for Parents and Caregives of Children 0-12 on Preventing Child Sexual Abuse

From the booklet: "This booklet is for parents, caregivers, and other caring adults to help them prevent the sexual abuse of children. Some of parents' worst fears are that their children might be hurt or abused. We cannot always control the way other people treat our children, and our children cannot control the way others treat them either. However, the good news is that we can always control our own behavior, and we can help our children learn to do the same. As a parent or caregiver, you are the best person to teach your children how they should be treated and how they should treat others. They see you doing it every day! In this booklet, you will find ideas for talking about sexual abuse and safety."

Strategies for Integrating Prevention into Organizational Operations

"Preventing sexual violence takes more than the energy, commitment, and time of prevention practitioners – it is a movement-wide initiative that requires thoughtful and intentional action by everyone. When prevention is integrated into an agency’s vision and culture, it can be sustained and continue to grow in innovation over time. An organizational commitment to prevention will help with the movement-wide paradigm shift toward effective prevention."
