What We Do
In-class Prevention Education for Children and Teens
We facilitate workshops in all public schools on Molokai from pre-school thru 12th grade regarding creating healthy personal boundaries, respect for self and others, consent and permissions, and body autonomy.
Lessons are tailored to be age and culturally appropriate.
​
​
Parent, Guardian/Caregiver, and Educator Workshops
We provide workshops for adults that care for keiki. Classes are held with parents, teachers, school faculty, grandparents, camp leaders, social services, community members, and faith-based organizations.
Training is provided on topics such as: how to respond to a disclosure, internet safety and trends, mandatory reporting laws, and strategies to help prevent child sexual violence.
​
​
Community Outreach
We partner with volunteers, community groups, and agencies primarily on Molokai and throughout the State to increase access to resources, advocate for needed services, and discuss systemic change, and outreach efforts.
​
​
Leadership Development
We partner with student leaders (teens) to become familiar with prevention strategies who then become resources of support with their peers.
