Frequently Asked Questions –Our Workshops
We offer prevention workshops to youth and adults throughout BC and beyond.
FAQs
We offer both in-person and virtual workshops. In-person sessions take place at your school or at another location of your choice. Virtual sessions are typically delivered on Zoom.
For children and youth, we recommend in-person workshops whenever possible, as they tend to be more engaging and effective.
Youth workshops are 60 minutes, including time for questions. Adult presentations vary in length and are typically 1 to 2 hours.
We can present to groups of any size, from a single class to a grade-wide or school-wide assembly.

Yes, we offer three:
Keeping Kids Safe Online helps parents, caregivers and professionals support children’s online safety in an ever-changing digital world.
It Can Happen to Anyone (ITCHA) provides community members, social service providers, and other youth-serving professionals with practical information to help prevent child sexual exploitation and support young people who have been affected.
Both of these workshops can be booked for PACs, parent groups, and professional development days.
Finally, Human Trafficking 101 is a competency-based training program that equips frontline social service professionals with the skills to identify and address human trafficking risks affecting children and youth.

We do our best to deliver all scheduled workshops as planned. In rare cases, such as facilitator illness or other unforeseen circumstances, a workshop may need to be rescheduled. Whenever possible, we will arrange an alternate facilitator.

You can find conversation starters and additional resources on our teacher resource page.
