 * Wise Child: Personal Safety Training, Teaching children personal safety skills﻿**

The program aims to educate children and young people to identify situations where they feel safe in order to differentiate when they feel unsafe and know how to seek assistance from trusted people. Networks of trusted people are developed to ensure there are a range of people that the child feels they can ask for help. The Protective Behaviours Program is based on two fundamental themes: 1. We all have the right to feel safe all the time 2. Nothing is so awful that we can't talk about it with someone To find out more about this empowerment and resilience program visit the Child Wise website, [|www.childwise.net] []

Or contact Karen on 03 9645 8911. Child Wise provides Personal Safety/Protective Behaviours training all across Australia.

Targeting teenage males, '6'is made up of six short films about six friends and aims to assist young men in coping with some of the emotional health issues they may face during adolescence such as self-esteem, relationships, sexuality, crime, suicide and drink driving." The DVD was developed through close collaboration with students from Melville and Applecross senior high schools. The DVD costs $33. I have attached the order form and a flyer about their other resources.

Beyondblueis soon to release (Sep 2010) a strength based resilience program called SenseAbility designed for those working with young Australians aged 12-18. It consists of a suite of modules developed to enhance and maintain emotional and psychological resilience in young secondary school aged Australians. It was created with classroom delivery in mind; however, the modules have strong potential to benefit young people in other structured environments such as TAFE, Youth Resource Centres etc... The program is based on CB (Cognitive Behavioural) principles; the evidence based approach which says that our thoughts play a central role in influencing feelings and consequent behaviour. Athena Vass is the program manager for Beyondblue and would like to introduce the program to your team for promotion in schools from September 2010 and beyond.
