We are so pleased and proud to welcome KIDPOWER International™ to UofMom.com.
What is KIDPOWER TEENPOWER FULLPOWER International?

"KIDPOWER TEENPOWER FULLPOWER International™ (shortened to KIDPOWER™) is a charitable nonprofit organization founded in Santa Cruz, California in 1989. Our vision is to work together to create cultures of caring, respect, and safety for all. Our mission is to empower people of all ages and abilities by helping them learn how to stay safe, act wisely and believe in themselves. Experts highly recommend the KIDPOWER approach for being positive, practical and relevant for children, teenagers and adults from many different cultures. Worldwide, we have served over 1,000,000 individuals – over 200,000 of these through our workshops and over 800,000 through our educational programs."

Executive Director and Co-Founder of KIDPOWER™, Irene van der Zande, believes that the skills taught by KIDPOWER™ can prevent most bullying, molestation, assault, abduction, and exploitation.

I had the pleasure of talking to Irene van der Zande and I am dedicted and committed to her vision of creating cultures of caring, respect and safety for everyone.

The KIDPOWER ™ forum on UofMom is to help parents raise happy and confident children by utilizing resources from KIDPOWER™.

Irene van der Zande has assured me that she would welcome comments and any advise given by our members.

Please remember that the UofMom username "KIDPOWER" is to be considered the official spokesperson for KIDPOWER™ International only.

KIDPOWER TEENPOWER FULLPOWER International can be found at www.kidpower.org (http://www.kidpower.org).

As a parent and co-founder of UofMom.com, I truly believe that KIDPOWER™ is the parenting tool of the century and much needed to help stop bullying and violence in our schools and communities.

Please join me in welcoming KIDPOWER™ to the University of Mom.

Thank you all for your enthusiastic welcome!

I have an article about Safety Plans for Families with Special Needs, if you'd like to share this with your other forum. Still trying to figure out how to answer people individually!
