 P.S.
It’s My Body is a personal safety program for children Pre-K through
7th grade. The Children’s Advocacy Center of Smith County offers this
program at no cost to public and private schools and other youth serving
organizations.
The program’s goal is to teach children strategies lessen their
susceptibility to abuse. All activities are designed to reinforce the
three R’s (Recognize, Resist, Report) by integrating a variety of
experiences to increase children’s knowledge and skill retention.
Children learn about welcome and unwelcome touches, identifying trusted
adults, personal safety boundaries, the importance of helping others,
resistance skills to deal with bullies and other important issues children
face every day. P.S. It’s My Body utilizes visual aides such as
a play, a video, safety scenarios, games and crafts all of which are focused
around personal safety and empowerment.
