“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.”

“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.”

“Hi guys, I wanted to let you know that my 7 year old son got separated from us at Disneyland yesterday. We found him a few minutes later talking to a safety officer. He had remembered the song on the CD that told him to find someone he could trust and he went over to a woman with a Disneyland ID tag and told her he was lost. She took him to a safety officer. We asked him if he was really scared and he said he was at first but then he remembered that he knew exactly what to do and he just went and did it. Just wanted to give you guys some nachas!”

— Parent, Torath Emet

Wishing you continued hatzlacha.”

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

“… the impact of this revolutionary and progressive initiative is literally life saving. The Safety Kid program educates students, parents and schools to anticipate these dangers and take proactive precautions.”

— Rabbi Moshe Dear, Headmaster
Yavneh Hebrew Academy

“Every parent, educator, and adult recognizes the numerous dangers facing our children today. There aren’t many, however, who have taken the initiative to do something about it. You have undertaken the daunting task to educate the frum population about a subject that has long been pushed aside.

Your presentation was delivered in an informative, non-ambiguous, yet refined way. Your multi-pronged approach of incorporating all sectors: educators, parents and students into the project will בע״ה ensure that inroads are finally made into protecting our precious children.”

— Rabbi Shmuel Hiller
Bnos Bais Yaakov of Far Rockaway, NY

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

“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.”
