Child Sexual Assault is an extremely serious, complex, and silenced issue. While prevention education can be difficult and uncomfortable to talk about, figuring out how to identify, report, or treat abuse can be even tougher. Luckily, it isn't something you have to do alone.
Blue Sky Bridge is an advocacy center located in Boulder that offers a number of helpful resources for preventing, identifying, reporting, and treating child sexual assault.
Even if you don't live in the Boulder area, their website (www.blueskybridge.org) is full of great information for parents and adults who work with children. You'll find tips on internet safety, child assault statistics, links to sex offender registries, and countless other valuable tools.
We strongly encourage you to familiarize yourself with the resources in your community. We all hope that the children we care about never have to endure a traumatic situation, but if they do, our understanding of the resources available to them can make all the difference.
