Workshops are for parents, caregivers (e.g., grandparents, other relatives, nannies), and professionals who have or work with children, from newborns to 14 years of age. But parents of older teens also attend and find great value.

I provide examples relevant to kids of all ages because it’s never too early or too late to teach your child body-safety skills in an age-appropriate, non-threatening manner.

Each workshop has a minimum of 45 people. If you are more comfortable with one-on-one interactions, you might consider a private Parenting Safe Children Mini-Talk.

Yes, you will receive a packet of information with numerous useful handouts, including: list of age-appropriate sexual behaviors; questionnaire for screening child care providers and play dates; guidelines for talking with children about body-safety; ‘What If’ scenarios for empowering children to handle potentially difficult situations; and local resources.

Yes, and you receive a 20% discount on the Off Limits Book or a bundle discount if you purchase both the book and Conversation-Starter Cards found here.

Once we are able to return to in-person gatherings, we present workshops in the Denver Metro area, and sometimes in other parts of Colorado (please contact Feather to discuss workshops and fees outside the Denver Metro area). During remote learning, you can register for a live virtual workshop or  consider registering for the pre-recorded online workshop.

No. The Parenting Safe Children workshop is five (5) hours. The length ensures that you leave with practical tools that you can put to immediate use. It’s a small investment of time to keep children safe from sexual assault.

If you are a youth professional, the Parenting Safe Children Professional Training Workshop will likely be a better fit.

For special requests, please email feather to discuss.

You are not alone. Given the prevalence of child sexual assault, there are often survivors participating in my workshops.

I work very hard to create a safe environment and encourage people to seek outside support as necessary. Please email me if you would like a referral.

Many survivors report that the workshop is healing and gives them confidence in protecting their own children. In any case, the information presented is priceless for your family.

The workshops are for adults — ages 18 and up.

Absolutely — partnership makes a stronger Prevention Team™!

We can give you a certificate of attendance for you to submit to your discipline.

Yes! And it’s just as fulfilling as hosting a live workshop. All you need is a screen, projector, and group of people — friends, colleagues, parents, or caregivers — ready to learn how to keep their kids safe from sexual abuse. Please email Feather if you’re interested. She’ll guide you through the process and discuss how to do so during Covid times.
