The Child Advocates of Montgomery County Community Education Division is a licensed provider for Love146’s child trafficking and exploitation prevention curriculum Not a Number.
Not a Number is an interactive child trafficking and exploitation prevention curriculum designed to provide youth with information and skills in a manner that inspires them to make safe choices. Youth learn to identify and utilize healthy support systems that may decrease their vulnerabilities.
Through open conversations, engaging activities, the use of media, and opportunities for self-disclosure, participants will:
- Raise their awareness of what constitutes human trafficking and exploitation.
- Learn how to recognize recruitment tactics and understand vulnerabilities.
- Challenge harmful stereotypes and societal attitudes.
- Identify healthy support systems.
- Develop skills to safely navigate potential and existing exploitative situations.
- Learn how to access community resources when situations occur that increase their vulnerability (or if exploitation is already underway).
Our community education team can provide Not a Number curriculum to any teen group in the community. They can provide training for up to 30 teens at a time. If you’re interested in scheduling the training for your group, please contact TBRI® Director Jennifer Reitmeyer at Jennifer@CASASpeaks4Kids.com.
