The Joyful Child Foundation presents radKIDS
The Joyful Child Foundation invites you and your child to participate
in a radKIDS-Personal Empowerment Safety Education Program
offered at Canyon View Elementary School.
R.A.D. means Resisting Aggression Defensively. RADKids are
educated to recognize, avoid, resist, and if necessary escape
violence. Classes include discussion, activities, and resistance
techniques. It is a life skills program based on self value, self worth,
and self esteem. Topics include home safety, school safety, vehicle
safety, out & about safety, personal safety, and realistic physical
defense skills.
This class will be offered free of charge to children ages 8-12 only,
Monday - Friday, Jan.31-Feb.4, from 3pm – 5pm (except for
Wednesday, Feb.2, class will begin at 1:45pm and end at 3:45pm).
Class is offered on a first come, first serve basis and is limited to the
first 20 children registered. Parents can pre-register at the first parent
meeting on January 20th, and parents must attend the Parent’s
Companion to radKIDS class on January 27th in order to confirm
registration and complete the necessary consent forms.
In conclusion, interested parents should plan to attend both parent
meetings as well as the radKIDS graduation class on Friday, February
4th from 3-5pm. Parents are more than welcome to attend each two
hour radKIDS class, but it is not required. Children must participate
in each day’s class in order to graduate.
The Joyful Child Foundation offers classes throughout the year as
well as instructor training opportunities. For more information call
866-756-9385 or visit www.radKIDS.org or www.thejoyfulchild.org.
