Safety Plan for Children
Safety Tips
• Do not be alone with anyone who hurts you.
• Listen to the little voice inside when it says that what is being done to you isn't right.
• Find an adult you trust and tell them what is happening. If they don't believe you, keep telling until someone does believe you.
• The adult you talk to about your abuse (perhaps a teacher or a neighbor) may want to tell the police or child protective services about the person who is hurting you.
Tips for Emergencies or When You Get Scared
• Know the safe ways out of your house.
• Call a friend, neighbor, or family member you can trust or go to their house.
• Know your important telephone numbers—your telephone number, the police, and your trusted adult.
