Parent Workshop For Berkeley Turkish School parents, caregivers and teachers
People Safety skills help all of us be safe with people at home, at school, online, out in the world... everywhere. They also help strengthen important relationships. Learn ways to help young people learn and use age-appropriate People Safety skills on an everyday basis to have safer, more positive experiences with people, including strangers, siblings, peers, and other people they know.
This workshop is open to all Berkeley Turkish School parents and teachers. You are welcome to invite your friends, and register them under your name. During the workshop, we’ll practice how to help kids:
- Be and act aware and confident
- Check with adults if anything seems unsafe
- Move away from possible problems
- Follow Stranger Safety rules
- Stay safe from hurtful words
- Use voice as a safety tool
- Set clear boundaries
- Say “No” or “Stop” clearly and respectfully
- Deal with other kids poking, pushing, grabbing, etc.
- Use safety plans if lost in a store, park, or library
- Get help from busy adults - and persist!
