Over 5,000 adults will be trained this year to spot the signs of abuse.
The Stewards of Children training instructed by Susie’s Place staff trains adult caregivers, parents, teachers, coaches, and everyone willing to stand up against child abuse. It’s free and available regularly in communities around Indiana.
Online safety
New games, apps, and chat services are hard to keep up with. That’s why we’ve developed five simple tips for online safety parents and caregivers can use to keep their kids and teens safe.
You can also use these tips to start a conversation with your child.
