This free 2-hour workshop for parents, caregivers, family members and ECE workers across Canterbury provides practical strategies to help protect children aged 6 and under from sexual abuse, including building open communication, teaching body boundaries and recognising possible signs of harm.

These workshops provide opportunities to learn how to create safer environments where children feel confident to speak up and adults know how to respond calmly and supportively.
