Children & Youth Safety
In the process of growing up, youths are exposed to four major communities from where they learn or are taught lessons that stay with them for life. These communities include their homes, worship places, schools, and outdoor spaces. Each of these spaces impact their growth and attitude to life in many ways.
Child Safety at Home
The Home is where the child begins the process of socialization to become good citizens or problems for society.
Child Safety in Worship Places
Worship places are an important socialization agency that can empower youths for or damage them for life.
Child Safety in Schools
Schools are where the child receives an education that plays a critical role in moderating what they receive from their homes and their parents’ worship places.
Safety in Open Places
Open Places present children and youths the opportunity to develop mental and physical capacity as well as a source of relaxation from other activities. They are also sources of danger to youths.
