Say No to Stranger Danger

MMSD suggests empowering children with positive messages and safety skills that will not only build their self-esteem and self-confidence, but also help keep them safer. This includes learning how to recognize and avoid potentially dangerous situations, as well as learning effective steps to remove themselves from a suspicious situation.
It is important to teach children in a way that allows them to understand the situation without scaring them. For more information...
