Recording from live webinar held on 4/26/18.
In this webinar, we bring you the questions and concerns we hear from adults worried about their own sexual thoughts and feelings about children. Adults who are at-risk can and do reach out for help before a child is harmed, and they are a key voice in prevention. Understanding the questions they have about getting help for themselves - before they act on the concerning thoughts and feelings they may have - helps us understand more about what kinds of support and resources need to be offered to plan for safety for all and in all environments.
This webinar features guest experts Dr. Jill Levenson, Professor of Social Work at Barry University in Miami, FL. and a licensed clinical social worker with people who have abused, and Wayne Bowers, Executive Director of Cure-Sort and author of “Wayne’s Story”, a Stop It Now! story of hope.
