Attorney Eric Hsu, a speaker, consultant and
author of the e-book
"Separating Fact from Fiction in Child Sexual
Abuse Prevention," will be the guest speaker
at a presentation on Child Sexual Abuse
Prevention at 1:30 p.m. Monday, April 25, at the
Ponderay Events Center in Ponderay.
The program is aimed at arming parents and
professionals with the knowledge and tools to
eradicate the curse of child sexual abuse.
Attendees will learn about proactive principas
and an evidence-based approach to address the
issues of child sexual abuse and why many
conventional approaches to prevent such abuse
simply don't work.
Emerging issues with the scourge include
cellphones, computers and social networking,
which can be used to facilitate the "grooming"
and eventual abuse of children, and Hsu will
focus on prevention strategies that adapt to
these new technologies.
The event is being sponsored by Bonner County
Prosecutor Louis Marshall, the Bonner County
Child at Risk Team and the Ponderay events
center, and the presentation is free and open to
everyone interested, especially parents,
coaches, educators, public employees, social
service providers, medical professionals, law
enforcement personnel, counselors, probation
officers, advocates, churches ... anyone who
wants to have the knowledge and tools to prevent
the sexual abuse of our most precious asset, our
children.
The presentation will be at the Ponderay Events
Center, 401 Bonner Mall Way, Suite E, in
Ponderay. No reservations are required. |
