What is this program exactly?
This program is intended to create further accessibility to the NEW Stewards of Children® training by helping grant recipients with potential cost obstacles in furthering their good work.
Why do you think it is important to implement?
As a long-time supporter and Facilitator of the various Stewards of Children® iterations, I believe in limiting or removing as many obstacles from the movement as possible. Helping grantees with funds that might literally make the difference between hosting classes or not is a cause worth supporting.
What does it mean for the future of prevention?
The fight to eradicate child sexual abuse is one that needs as many accessible resources available as possible. This is an area that has been lacking in financial support. My hope is that the grant program will inspire those with resources to get involved and help remove the financial obstacles from advancing the Stewards of Children® curriculum.
How can you get involved?
Become an advocate of the training, become a Facilitator, make a donation to Darkness to Light’s efforts, encourage friends and family to take the class, encourage your local non-profits to review their child abuse prevention policies…the list of ways you can get involved in endless. The key is making the decision today to join the fight against child sexual abuse and then take action!
