Safety Kid in the News

Safety Kid comes to RASG Hebrew Academy — Jewish Press

The Jewish Press follows Safety Kid as it continues to gain traction and improve the lives and futures of children, in schools like RASG Hebrew Academy, and across the nation.

Magen Yeladim Child Safety Institute and founder Debbie Fox were invited to Pittsburgh, PA, to educate the Orthodox community, as well as the faculty, staff and students of Hillel Academy and Yeshiva Schools.

Magen Yeladim braves the snowy Midwest winter to deliver important safety program.

Parents and teachers feel "privileged" to welcome Safety Kid to their Ohio community.

Popular demand brings another Safety Kid seminar to Crown Heights tonight after over 600 people showed up last night to learn about child safety.

More than 1,000 children will gather along with parents and school officials to participate in Safety Kid workshops over the course of three days.

Safety Kid inspired a Long Island, New York community to take action on teaching child safety after a local tragedy.

“The Safety Kid Program is an imperative that a group of generous and dedicated individuals gifted to the entire Waterbury Community and through these efforts we daven that we will b’ezras Hashem merit a truly safe environment in which our children can thrive.”

— Penina Noy
Principal, Girls’ Division

“The Parent Education Workshop was amazing. I was blown away. I walked out feeling educated and more competent to keep my children safe. I am much less scared now than before the presentation. Thank you.”

— Parent, Crown Heights, New York, NY

“When my 6-year old came home from school today, she sat down my 3-year old and taught her the ABC’s of safety with the help of her beautiful safety certificate. I am so impressed that she not only knew the ABC’s of safety but that she was so enthusiastic to teach it to her sister.”

A crucial facet of this program was that Mrs. Fox and her team did a masterful job of clarifying the mystifying aspect of these sensitive topics in a tactful but unambiguous manner. The beauty of the Safety Kids Program was that important concepts, that have unfortunately become well known, were systematically organized and presented in a clear manner to enable educators and parents to know what to be aware of.”

“The program was wonderful last week, and it was amazing to hear my kids at home singing and talking about the ABCs of safety. It even led to [my child] sharing that a neighbor made him feel uncomfortable and he was able to say specifically how! Well done.”

— Parent, Phoenix Hebrew Academy

“After attending the Safety Kid teacher training seminar I feel more empowered with knowledge, having learnt the proper responses to a situation and most importantly to look beyond the child that is sitting in front of me.”

— Mrs. Tzeenie Freedman
Second Grade Morah, Yeshiva K’tana
Waterbury, CT

“Our community’s experience with Magen Yeladim International’s Safety Kid program was remarkable in every way. While the need for a national preventative safety program is an unfortunate sign of the times, nevertheless, it is gratifying that a fabulous program, endorsed by leading Rabbonim and led by nationally acclaimed Mrs. Debbie Fox, has emerged and has already benefitted and impacted some 28,000 children across the globe. The program was presented to our parents, faculty, and students in a dignified, professional, appropriate and culturally sensitive manner and was truly well accepted by one and all.”

— Rabbi Simcha Dessler Menahel,
Educational Director,
Hebrew Academy of Cleveland

“A mother read a story last night to her 4-yr-old daughter who had received yesterday’s training about Rivka going down to the well. Her daughter immediately piped up and said, ‘She shouldn’t have gone alone. She should have brought a friend.’ …Overall, we’ve received tremendously good feedback about the program.”

— Rabbi Heifetz,
Director of General Studies,
Seymour J. Abrams Cheder Lubavitch Boys School

“Just a brief note of thanks for a wonderful program—it was very well received, and the students are so excited. On a personal note, my own children came home and knew EVERYTHING (my wife tested them!). It made a deep impact, and I am very grateful.”

— Rabbi Isaac Entin
Principal, Phoenix Hebrew Academy
Phoenix, AZ

“Thank you for the professional and comprehensive training and demonstration of the Kid Safety Presentation. The Rebbeim were impressed with the content and how well it was given over. It was all very down to earth and kid-friendly. Everyone felt that it was very worthwhile.

Wishing you continued hatzlacha.”

— Rabbi M.M. Grunfeld, Yeshiva Yesodei HaTorah, Toronto, Canada
