Working Together to End Child Sexual Abuse Webinar - It’s a KnowGO! Curriculum for Educators to Protect Students
2022-04-26 13:30 - 15:00 (America/Halifax) | Webinar
In honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, ASCIP will be highlighting one of the key strategies available to members through the CAARE Program (Child Anti-Assault Response and Education). KnowGO is a curriculum and tool kit designed to increase educators and districts ability to prevent childhood sexual abuse by providing students with the critical awareness, skills, and knowledge needed to protect themselves at school and online. The curriculum has been strategically designed to nurture age-appropriate, honest, transparent discussions of safety, promote trust in safe adults and build confidence in identifying unsafe situations. The engaging curriculum and activities increase awareness of grooming behaviors, boundary pushing and potential risky situations—which is key to the safety of our children. The curriculum may be incorporated interactively into the classroom, school-wide activities, and take home family exercises. The combination of the dynamic, vibrant animations and engaging, insightful activities will facilitate a life changing experience for students grades 1-5.

While hundreds – if not thousands – of school districts are victimized by cyber criminals each year, it is only recently that we’ve been able to paint a picture of the emerging threat landscape facing schools. Given limited resources and the realities of district operations, what can K12 leaders do to protect their school communities? What roles can superintendents and school boards play? How can K12 IT leaders prioritize their limited time and resources? As the K12 sector grapples with these and related issues, the key to protecting school communities will be collective defense.
