REPLAY & RESOURCES:

Training materials and resources for this workshop are available only to participants. If you have questions, about this workshop, please contact CalTrin.

 

TRAINING DETAILS:

Stewards of Children® is an evidence-informed training that teaches adults to prevent, recognize, and react responsibly to child sexual abuse. Participants will exit the training being able to engage in conversations about child sexual abuse prevention with other adults and enact prevention policies where children live, learn, and play. They will also be able to recognize and react to boundary violations as well as suspected child abuse and disclosures. Participants will transfer the skills they learn into their communities, helping to embed prevention practices within their spheres of influence to help proactively prevent child sexual abuse.

 

Learners will:

  • Distinguish between the myths and facts of child sexual abuse
  • Examine ways to minimize opportunities for abuse in a variety of situations, including online and gaming environments
  • Discuss strategies to bridge cultural gaps that may potentially inhibit open communication
  • Recognize the power and impact they have within their sphere of influence

 

Who should attend: All staff of family resource centers (FRCs), child abuse prevention councils (CAPCs), community-based organizations, and other child- and family-serving systems.
