Join us for a workshop featuring Feather Berkower, a licensed clinical social worker.
Feather Berkower is a licensed clinical social worker and has been a leader in child sexual abuse prevention since 1985. Her well-regarded workshop, "Parenting Safe Children", empowers adults to keep children safe from sexual assault.
Feather co-authored Off Limits, a parenting book that will change the way you think about keeping children safe. It is available on her website at parentingsafechildren.com. Feather believes that adults are responsible for protecting children from sexual assault.
During this lecture, Feather will discuss the following topics:
- Definition and prevalence of child sexual abuse;
- grooming process; age-appropriate sexual behavior;
- warning signs that a child, teen, or adult may be harming a child sexually;
- key concepts of body safety
- and body-safety rules; and signs and symptoms of sexually abused children.
This event is free, open to the public, and supported by the Rhode Island College Committee on College Lectures.
