PREVENTION OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE: THEORY-BASED PRIMARY PREVENTION &PERSONAL SAFETY EDUCATION – AN INTRODUCTION 

Child sexual abuse is a multifaceted problem that requires a holistic response. Preventing child sexual abuse requires at least a two-fold focus, primary prevention that tries to reach all children and secondary prevention that focuses on populations at risk. This seminar will present the basic theory supporting primary prevention with examples of some best-practices. These elements can then be used for secondary prevention when there is an understanding of which aspects of populations are at-risk and how to use which elements for these at-risk aspects.

With the objective of empowering  primary school going age  children to safeguard themselves against CSA, the workshop on Personal Safety Education  is to provide  participants with an understanding of  age-appropriate  information and   the accompanying   non-threatening methods to convey it while utilizing   a variety of resources developed specifically for this purpose

PREVENTION OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE: DEALING WITH SEXUAL MISBEHAVIORS IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN 
Children behave sexually for several reasons, from curiosity to responses due to abuse. Most sexual misbehavior is common and normal. When adults respond to these behaviors appropriately, children learn appropriate behaviors. Unfortunately, so many common sexual misbehavior is responded to in ways that could accelerate normal behavior into abuse of other children. These sessions will look at practical ideas to respond to children with sexual misbehavior issues for healthy sexual development.

TALKING TO ADULTS WITH EARLY WARNING SIGNS

 Preventing child sexual abuse efforts have mostly worked on building skills in children to help them recognize potential dangers and even talk with the offender. This component in prevention is important but it brings to focus the fact that adults have failed to keep potential offenders away from children. Talking to our peers or older adults is extremely difficult for us. This is even more so for the children who we expect to deal with them instead. The third precondition to child sexual abuse is that the protectors of children are themselves manipulated by potential offenders who we then give access to our children. This one day seminar will examine the research about sexual abusers to help us prevent them from abusing.
