Body Boss
Distance Learning | Our Location | Outreach
Duration: 45 Min.
Body Boss teaches students that they are the bosses of their own bodies and have the right to say no. Students will learn the differences between a good and bad touch. Animated videos provide examples of unsafe situations, and discussion allows students to learn from the characters’ positive, assertive responses. An activity provides students the chance to build an emergency plan to prepare for unsafe situations. Students will be encouraged to speak to a trusted adult about their struggles or concerns.
This program aligns with Erin’s Law on teaching students to recognize sexual abuse. After students participate in this program, schools should expect an increase in reports about potential abuse.
