CHILD SAFETY PLAN

A SAFETY PLAN TO
HELP KIDS STAY SAFE FROM DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
1. DON'T TRY TO GET
IN THE MIDDLE OF A FIGHT.
Even though you may want to help, it is not a
good idea to get in the middle of a fight
when one of your parents is hurting the
other. If one of your parents is yelling or
hurting the other, the best thing to do is go
to another room.
2. IF YOU CAN GET TO
A PHONE SAFELY, CALL 911 FOR HELP AND STAY ON
THE PHONE.
Find a phone that is away from the fight and
tell the 911 helper what is going on in your
house. The 911 helper will ask some questions
because they are trying to help you and will
send the police right away.
3. TRY NOT TO GET
TRAPPED IN A SMALL ROOM, CLOSET OR THE
KITCHEN.
You may be afraid that you could get hurt
too. If you are afraid, move towards a door,
window, or room where you can safely exit
the house.
4. GO TO A SAFE
PLACE. FIND A SAFE RELATIVE OR NEIGHBOR AND
ASK FOR HELP.
It is ok to ask for help. The most important
thing is to get in a safe place with an adult
you trust. Some people that can help that you
can trust are friends, neighbors, teachers,
police officers, doctors & nurses, and
lawyers & judges. |
Every family has trouble getting along every
now and then. It is ok for people in a family to
get upset with each other. But, it is NEVER
ok for people in a family to abuse each other.
When grownups in your family hit, slap, kick,
push, or throw objects at someone else in your
family it is abuse. Abuse can also happen when
family members are put down or touched in wrong
ways. Families should not have to live with abuse
and violence. If your family has trouble like
this, you are not alone. Please tell a safe adult
about what is going on. It is also a good idea to
have a safety plan to help you know what to do
next time someone in your family is being hurt.
|
Remember: It's
not your fault!
It's okay to love
both of your parents, even if one parent is
hurting the other.
But, it's not okay
for that parent to hurt you, your other
parent, or anyone else. |
