Strong Connections, Safer Kids: Protecting Vulnerable Youth from Exploitation
Children and youth who are adopted or in kinship or customary care may experience unique vulnerabilities that can increase their risk of grooming, exploitation, trafficking, and manipulation by unsafe adults or peers. As caregivers, understanding these risks, and recognizing the warning signs early, can play a critical role in prevention and protection.
Join Karly Church for an important and compassionate conversation focused on helping caregivers better understand how predators target vulnerable youth, what signs to watch for, and how to build safety, connection, and protective factors within relationships and communities.
This webinar will explore:
Common vulnerabilities that may increase risk
Grooming tactics and online safety concerns
Warning signs of exploitation or trafficking
How to strengthen communication and trust with youth
Practical ways caregivers can support safety and prevention
Resources and supports available for families
This session is intended for caregivers of children and youth who are adopted, in kinship care, or customary care, within the Interwoven Connections Community.
We look forward to having you attend the event!
