WACSS Protective Behaviours Parent Workshop

This event was funded by the Western Australian Association for Mental Health with the support of Lotterywest as part of Mental Health Week 2024.

Protective Behaviours is a child abuse prevention program used across Australia. This FREE workshop will provide parents and carers with up-to-date information and practical strategies that can empower your child and help keep them safe from abuse.

The program is based on two core themes:

1. We all have the right to be safe and feel safe at all times.
2. We can talk with someone about anything, no matter what it is.

Learn about how to teach your children essential personal safety strategies including:

• Identifying unsafe feelings and warning signs
• Safe and unsafe secrets
• Personal space and consent
• Body safety
• Safety networks
• Help-seeking strategies

Please note this workshop is not suitable for children.

This is a public event open to the whole community.
