Caregiver Orientation and Caregiver Workshops on the Healthy Relationships Project (6PM)
2024-09-23 - 2024-09-24
This virtual meeting will provide caregivers with an introduction to the Healthy Relationships Project (HRP). HRP is a health-based, developmentally appropriate, trauma-informed child sexual abuse prevention curriculum for children in grades Pre-K to 5th grade. This curriculum was developed by Prevent Child Abuse Vermont and has been implemented in 29 states and the District of Columbia for over 30 years. HRP is not a curriculum about sexual education; instead, it is a curriculum that helps children build skills to identify feelings that make them safe or unsafe, identify boundaries, use anatomically correct terms, and identify safe adults.
As a Parent/Guardian/Caregiver:

You will be invited to attend workshops on topics relating to the prevention of child sexual abuse during the semester.
You will be asked to participate in periodic online surveys about your knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding child sexual abuse prevention.
A small number of caregivers from each school will be invited to participate in a one-on-one virtual interview with a researcher from the evaluation team to share your thoughts and experiences.

Learn more in this letter from Mr. Stafford. Please feel free to contact him directly at Kevin.Stafford@k12.dc.gov with any questions.
