The Body Safety Program is an important opportunity to protect children. It is a community service provided by the Victim Assistance Unit of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department to educators and school administrators in Marion County.
This prevention program empowers children to protect themselves. It enables them to tell a trusted adult if they have been a victim of sexual assault. Presentations are adapted to the age and interest level of participating children and youth.
Our 'Parent Program' also introduces parents to the content of the presentation their child will be attending. It includes pertinent information about child sexual assault.
For more information about the Body Safety Program or if you our your school wishes to schedule a presentation please contact Jessica Mederios at 327-7843 or Frances Hicks at 327-5028.
Additional information on child safety may be found at the Good Touch/Bad Touch web site.
