Abuse awareness program puts Kids in the Know January 16, 2021
With up to one-quarter of youth experiencing sexual victimization by the time they turn 18, the national Kids in the Know program aims to arm students with knowledge and safety strategies to prevent abuse and exploitation.
Taught in school divisions across Canada, Kids in the Know is a program developed by the Winnipeg-based Canadian Centre for Child Protection. The interactive safety education program uses age-appropriate lessons to teach students safety skills to reduce risk of victimization, building children’s confidence and critical thinking skills and prepares them for the potentially dangerous situations they may run up against.
