About the Event
The Power Over Predators program is an evidence-based training developed over 15 years of research and interaction with youth. POP's purpose is to end child exploitation and abuse through prevention education programs designed to raise awareness and minimize the number of victims. At POP, we aim for a world where children can achieve their goals and dreams free from abuse and exploitation.
Our training focuses on two learning objectives:
Your Story Matters
Participants will be able to:
- identify what makes them vulnerable
- understand the tactics of predators
- determine steps to avoid or stop exploitation
Your Brain Matters
Participants will be able to:
- identify how predators use the Internet to trap them
- recognize the dangers and consequences of harmful images online, such as pornography and sexting
- determine steps to take to be smart and safe online
