Prevention Education Services
Juliette’s House provides a wide variety of age-appropriate abuse prevention education programs for schools and the community. Our intent is to create an arc of education that informs and empowers every age group from preschoolers to adults. We especially strive to reach those who work with children, teaching them to be proactive in avoiding potentially abusive situations, as well as recognizing and appropriately intervening when abuse or neglect is suspected. We report any disclosures of abuse or neglect to law enforcement or the Oregon Department of Human Services.
In 2015, the Oregon legislature passed SB 856, also known as Erin's Law. Erin's Law requires the development and adoption of child sexual abuse prevention programs for kindergarten through 12th-grade students in all Oregon public schools.

In Safer Smarter Kids, children learn about personal safety and how to reduce the risk of abuse using proven techniques. The free program has three age-appropriate lessons with activities, songs, and puppets.
We prefer to have 5-30 students per session for the training. To learn more about the curriculum, visit the Lauren’s Kids Foundation at safersmarterkids.org. You do not need to attend a preschool for your child to participate; if you have at least 5 students, we can bring the education directly to you.

In Safe Kids, students are taught how to prevent, recognize, and respond to abuse, including bullying and online dangers. The free program includes two lessons with interactive presentations, discussions, videos, games, and skill-building activities.
Safe Kids visits all Yamhill County public schools annually. If your child doesn't attend public school, we can bring the program to your homeschool group, private school, or a school outside Yamhill County. To learn more about the curriculum, visit the Monique Burr Foundation at mbfpreventioneducation.org.
