"Dear Stop It Now! Helpline, Nothing has happened... yet. How do I keep it that way?"

We know that the best time to plan for safety is before any warning signs are present and before harm has occurred. But how young is too young to start these conversations with children? How do caring adults talk to other extended relatives – or even co-parents, about their family safety rules? Do adults need to speak up when another adult is using inappropriate language or mature jokes around children? In this webinar, we visit primary prevention strategies through Helpline letters asking about what families can do before they have a specific concern. We’ll talk about what it means to create a family safety plan, how adults can talk together about safety needs for children and how to engage with children around safety through a developmental lens.
