Training Overview
First Witness is pleased to offer Safe and Strong Child© Train the Presenter to CACs and other organizations interested in implementing a child abuse prevention education program in their communities.
This training will prepare presenters to share Safe and Strong Child© sessions with students, caregivers, and teachers and bring the curriculum to their local community; each person planning on presenting the information needs to take this Train the Presenter course. This course is not a train-the-trainer course, and does not prepare you to train other presenters at your organization.
Safe and Strong Child© (SSC©) body safety curriculum is aligned with evidence-informed best practices for child sexual abuse prevention. SSC© consists of developmentally appropriate classroom lessons that are taught interactively through stories, role play, and song in a non-threatening environment. Portions of the curriculum also provide support and education to teachers and caregivers who can help to keep kids safe.
All participants will receive electronic copies of SSC© curriculum materials, classroom presentation aids, and coordination paperwork. For organizations who want to jumpstart their SSC program, there is a physical Safe and Strong Child© Kit available in the course registration as an add-on to the training.
