KIDPOWER: A NON-PROFIT GROUP IN AUSTIN, TEXAS, TO CONTACT FOR PROTECTING YOUR YOUNG CHILD'S OR YOUR TEENAGER'S SAFETY

https://www.kidpower.org/what-we-do/locations/austin/ An excerpt from this webpage: "Kidpower Austin was established in 2012 by school teacher and mother Eve Margolis. Eve found Kidpower International when looking for a way to help her then three-year-old daughter (learn) how to be safe without (that educational program) being scary (to her)....(Kidpower Austin Director Margolis) serves as an expert resource for parents and is available to respond to requests for workshops in the Austin area. Kidpower Austin brings safety education to children, teens, and adults of all ages and abilities in Austin." Contact information: e-mail: austin@kidpower.org Phone: 512-666-4543 Another noteworthy excerpt from the Kidpower Austin website: "I was recently sent this video that demonstrates how ineffective it is just to tell our children not to talk to strangers. A man with a puppy asks different parents for permission to approach their children with the puppy to see how they handled it. All of these parents said they have consistently told their children never to talk to strangers. Much to their horror, it took him about 30 seconds to draw their children away from a park."
