rad KIDS Saftey Program

radKIDS November 17-20, 2008 (4pm – 6pm)
Merritt Island Sheriff’s Office East Precinct on Courtenay Pkwy

radKIDS is the national leader in children's safety, with headquarters based in South Dennis, Massachussetts. radKIDS is brought to children and parents by the training and development of nationally certified instructors drawn from their own communities. By empowering a community with certified local instructors, the radKIDS Personal Empowerment Safety Education package is not just a program but a true gift to the community.

radKIDS Curriculum topics include:
• Home, School and Vehicle Safety
• Out and About Safety
• Realistic Defense Against Abduction
• Good-Bad-Uncomfortable Touch and more.
• Stranger Tricks (including Physical Defense against Abduction)
• Self-realization of personal power

Schedule
The radKIDS program consists of an 8-hour class that is broken down into 4 two-hour sessions. Attendance is required at each session in order for the child to receive their certificate of completion and T-shirt. The program has two segments: one for ages 5-7 and one for ages 8-12. Parents are welcome to attend each session to observe what the youth are learning so they can help maintain the empowerment after the class has ended.

By the end of the class, the students will understand aspects of personal safety, defense against abduction, stranger tricks, uncomfortable touch, and self-realization of personal power.

To sign up please contact Charlene Neuterman, Youth Programs Coordinator for the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office at 321-454-6671 or Charlene.Neuterman@bcso.us
