PARENT CLASSES
Prevention Starts with Parents - What to Know and What to Do About It
We desire to not overcomplicate the responsibility of preventing child sexual abuse. Although child sexual abuse is complex, parents are truly in the best position to prevent these crimes. You don’t have to be a professional or have a specific degree. We will make you feel confident in protecting your children from sexual abuse, and how to approach this topic with your children.
"I brought Alison in to coach our parents and volunteers on how to protect children. The feedback I got from all of them was that the class was incredibly helpful and thought-provoking. The conversation about how to protect children doesn't happen nearly enough but every time it does it has the impact to protect even more children. Bringing Alison in is a must.”
- Phillip, Senior Pastor
