Child molesters love crowds.
Child molesters love crowds, where they can offend anonymously and not get caught. Crowds like at the movies, sporting events, or amusement and water parks. Even hotels, cruise lines, and country clubs face a challenge because offenders can blend in with other guests, and parents sometimes let their supervision guard down.

- TrainingDoes the training you provide employees and volunteers work to change behavior, or does it just provide a “check in the box” every two or three years? Does it engage the learners? Are you certain it covers the correct content? Do you reliably track and ensure completion? Praesidium provides a complete training delivery system for organizations, including customized online courses, onsite workshops, DVD programs, mini-minders and just-in-time videos. Learn More
- Policy DevelopmentPolicies define the bandwidth of acceptable behavior in your organization—what’s permitted and what’s not—and inform and empower employees and volunteers to take action before an incident occurs. Praesidium reviews your existing policies and helps develop new policies that permit you to accomplish your mission while prohibiting behaviors most commonly associated with abuse. Learn More

Testimonials
We selected Praesidium in our search to find a provider for abuse prevention training for our summer camp counselors. Not only did they offer economical rates for training our staff, but we found the information so informative, easy-to-follow, and at times very emotional that we now require more of our youth-serving staff to take the course. Praesidium is professional in their administration and we have had no problems with the service. I highly recommend their program for those that have programs or services that deal with youth.
