“Doing Right by Our Kids:” A conversation with Amy Tiemann

Amy Tiemann joins us on this PreventConnect podcast to discuss her new book with co-author Irene van der Zande “Doing Right by Our Kids: Protecting Child Safety at All Levels.” Amy discusses how crucial it is to meet people at square one when it comes to promoting child safety, and how we can engage all kinds of organizations in child sexual abuse prevention. She also dives into how neurobiology, adverse childhood experiences, and prevention are all connected.

Amy gave us a handful of recommended resources, such as Kidpower, of which her co-author Irene van der Zande is the founder. Amy also recommends listeners read “The Gift of Fear” and “Protecting the Gift,” as well as check out websites and projects like Darkness to Light and Stewards of Children.
