PERSONAL BODY SAFETY

Now that you are getting older, it can be helpful to learn about some ways that can keep you safe, such as what to do and how to ask for help. We will learn about how you can keep safe, what you can do when you feel that you are unsafe, your body’s early warning signs and also who is in your network of people that you can talk to when you do feel unsafe.

This lesson has been created to include key information in a easy to read manner with visuals to support information retention.
