School Resource Officers and Community Policing Officers are often called upon to speak to children within schools in
their community on the subject of street proofing and child personal safety. This application will help these officers convey
the knowledge children need to know to protect themselves from predators, sexual abuse, and exploitation. It was developed
to provide these officers with the tools they need to understand the issues regarding child safety and to teach children how
to stay safe in various situations.
This application can also be used for presentations to parents, educators, safety professionals, and community groups.
This application contains:
· Background material on child personal safety issues such
as child abuse and exploitation, types of missing children and safety strategies to address these issues
· Age appropriate lesson plans
· Animated vignettes and practice/role-play scenarios of
the most common ploys used by perpetrators
· Activity
sheets officers can use to help reinforce the safety rules
