Stewards of Children program

As a community, it is our responsibility to bring awareness about child sexual abuse and shift the responsibility from the child to the adult responsible for protecting the child. For this, the Darkness to Light organization has developed the Stewards of Children program, which will be offered by the Child Protection Center. The program not only focuses on shifting the responsibility to the adult but also brings full consciousness and action for the protection of children from sexual abuse. In addition to consciousness and awareness, we will teach reporting policies, mandated laws, and community resources. Basically, the program teaches the nuts and bolts of protecting, preventing and responding to our children. If you think you might be interested in this program being offered for you, volunteers or staff of your agency or program, please call us.

The Child Protection Center has classes scheduled at the center. If you would like to participate in one of the following listed classes, please call us at (740) 779-7431 to register. The classes are being offered free thanks to funding from Ohio Children's Trust Fund.
