Child Protection Center received a $10,000 grant courtesy of the Wells Fargo Foundation to provide funding for the Personal Safety Community Awareness (PSCA) program. In a comprehensive approach to child abuse prevention, PSCA educates and empowers children and adults in an effort to eliminate child abuse. PSCA staff leads developmentally appropriate personal safety workshops for children that cover topics including: sexual abuse prevention, anti-bullying, internet safety, abduction prevention, self-esteem and empathy training. PSCA offers trainings for both parents and professionals on positive parenting techniques, identification and reporting of child abuse, indicators and impacts of sexual abuse and internet safety. This audience allows every sector of the community to be educated in their role and responsibilities in the creation of a community in which all children are safe from abuse through proactive education.
