BraveBe Child Advocacy Center’s Training & Prevention program was developed in 2015 to proactively address child abuse through high quality curriculum that educates the community on warning signs of abuse, appropriate response to disclosure, prevention measures, and other trauma-informed topics.
Each year, BraveBe provides over 200 training opportunities to parents, youth-serving organizations, faith-based communities, law enforcement, educators, medical and mental health professionals, athletic departments and other groups upon request.
The Training & Prevention program seeks to:
- Educate adults on child abuse by teaching applicable skills on how to recognize and report child abuse, and how to support a child during and after a disclosure
- Promote practical ways to protect children by educating adults on how to talk to children about body safety, boundaries, and sexual abuse.
- Teach real-world ways to keep children safe in the digital world.
- Create time and space to empower survivors through public and private platforms. BraveBe recognizes and deeply respects that each survivor’s journey is their own.
