Circles of Safety
Child sexual abuse prevention and safety training for youth-serving organizations and caregiving adults
Circles of Safety (COS) is Stop It Now!’s signature training series.
These trainings are designed to teach adults how to prevent child sexual abuse in youth-serving environments such as schools, foster care programs, after-school programs, camps, and daycares. Stop It Now! provides a skill-based, confidence-raising and action-planning educational experience. This is not a passive training about responding to abuse that has already happened; this is an educational session on actively keeping children safe wherever they learn, play and grow.
Trainings are delivered in multiple formats including comprehensive multi-day organizational trainings (some of which offer trainer certifications), self-paced videos, webinars, and customizable community workshops.

Being a part of this training has personally changed my world, that of my own child and that of all the little ones I care for. With education comes knowledge, with knowledge we become more aware of what needs changing. One child, one family, one community at a time.
