A Balanced Approach

Think First & Stay Safe is the original child victimization prevention program -- adopted by thousands of schools and school districts across America and around the world. The program offers a balanced perspective that preserves as much of the innocence and optimism of childhood as possible, while helping children and teens stay safe from sexual abuse, molestation, harassment, luring, abduction, drugs and bullying/cyberbullying.

This is accomplished through:

  • Emphasizing every child's right to live free of abuse
  • Promoting healthy social relationships
  • Nurturing mutual kindness and respect
  • Setting personal and digital boundaries
  • Teaching age-appropriate Child Lures and practicing proven prevention strategies
  • Identifying trusted adults
  • Upholding a zero tolerance environment in which harassment & abuse are openly discussed and disclosed
