Passport to Safety
A One-Hour Interactive, After-School Safety Experience for Elementary Students
ABOUT US
A Courageous Voice
A Courageous Voice exists to protect, prevent, and empower. Our mission is to safeguard children from abuse and exploitation by equipping them and the adults in their lives with practical, lifesaving prevention education. We believe children deserve to grow up happy, healthy, and free from harm.
At the heart of our work are the Five Safety Rules - universal, developmentally appropriate principles that help children recognize unsafe situations, identify their safe adults, understand boundaries, and use their voice with confidence. We know children learn best through play, movement, creativity, and repetition. That’s why our programs are interactive, engaging, and designed to build skills, not fear.
Our values are rooted in prevention, partnership, and empowerment. We believe safety education should be proactive, not reactive. We partner with schools and other youth-serving organizations to build a culture where children feel seen, supported, and confident in seeking help. When children know their safe adults, understand the red flags, and believe their voice matters, we strengthen not only individual lives, but entire communities.
Happy, Healthy Kids - Free From Harm
Passport to Safety
Passport to Safety is a high-energy, hands-on after-school event where children learn essential safety skills through movement, creativity, and play - all while engaging parents in the process.
In just one hour, students rotate through interactive safety stations, complete meaningful activities, and leave feeling confident, empowered, and connected to their safe adults.
💪Confidence to Use Their Voice
Students learn how to speak up, say “no,” and confidently ask for help when something doesn’t feel right - building courage and self-trust.
🛡️ Real-Life Safety Skills
Children walk away with practical tools to recognize red flags, identify their safe adults, and respond to unsafe situations in age-appropriate ways.
❤️ Stronger Connections at Home
By involving families, students leave with shared language and conversations that strengthen trust and communication beyond the event.
🎨 Learning Through Play
Through hands-on activities, creativity, music, and movement, students retain important safety lessons in a positive, engaging environment
The 5 Safety Rules
These universal rules guide every Passport to Safety experience.
Know What’s Up
Knowing What’s Up means understanding important information that helps keep you safe — like your personal details, who to contact in an emergency, and recognizing safe vs. unsafe situations.
Spot Red Flags
Red Flags are warning signs that something may not be safe, like hurtful words, unsafe touches, or being asked to keep unsafe secrets.
Make a Move
If something feels unsafe, Make a Move means getting away when you can - walking away, running away, or staying away from unsafe people or situations.
Talk It Up
Talk It Up means using your voice to say “No” in unsafe situations and telling a Safe Adult when you need help.
No Blame | No Shame
If someone ever hurts you, it is never your fault. You are not to blame, and it is always okay to tell a Safe Adult.
