Show Notes

With the spread of COVID-19 and school closures, we’re in a time of great uncertainty and change. But one thing remains constant: We all want to keep kids healthy and safe. This special episode of Grow Kinder features Dr. Tia Kim, Vice President of Education, Research, and Impact at Committee for Children.

Dr. Kim tells us about Hot Chocolate Talk, a public awareness campaign that emboldens parents to use this extra time at home to talk with their kids about sexual abuse. She discusses some of the most effective, evidence-based ways to protect against child sexual abuse. Dr. Kim also shares how she approaches these topics with her own kids.
