School Based Programs

PCAU 's child- abuse prevention programs deal with all aspects of child abuse: physical, sexual, emotional and neglect. Each age-level-appropriate program consists of classroom discussion, visual aids, videos and other interactive activities. Programs are typically given in the classroom and can be customized to fit the needs of each student. All programs also are offered in Spanish. The programs provide students with skills and knowledge on how to protect themselves if someone tries to abuse them, who and how to report abuse and safety strategies they can use in dangerous situations.

PCAU also offers in-service protocol training sessions for Utah school personnel . The sessions help teachers and staff identify signs and symptoms of child abuse, know where to report the abuse and give information on community resources and programs that can help students and their families.
