Protecting God’s Children

Safe Environment Program


Dear Parents and Guardians,           

  In an effort to assist in the monumental mission of protecting children, Holy Trinity Catholic Church is partnering with you to present a safe environment lesson to your child. It is our cherished role as adults to fully protect children. In addition, we must also teach children/youth about their safety rights and boundaries, so that they have tools to protect themselves. What follows is information about the program itself and the resources available to you.

Protecting God’s Children Program Information:

A program for children, each lesson includes a grade-appropriate video component along with learning activities. The material is designed to better equip your child to know their safety rights, recognize their boundaries, and to empower them to protect themselves when safe adults are not immediately available—and ultimately be safer from people who might want to harm them.

As we partner together in delivering this content to youth, there are two especially helpful resources to assist in delivering the lessons. These resources are provided to our Lesson Leaders (which include you as parents, along with the persons delivering the content per the organization). First, the Teaching Boundaries and Safety Guide, which equips safe adults to facilitate an ongoing safety dialogue, and the Lesson Leader Orientation and Certification Module, give you better insight about conducting the lessons. Following the lesson, we encourage you to continue reinforcing the message at home whenever possible.

I.                TRAINING FORMAT: As we did last year, we will be providing the lesson plan to you as the parent/guardian to present the information directly to your own child/youth. Your local coordinator will share the above lesson with you and any additional instructions on sharing this information the child/youth in your care.
