Prosecutor Sherri Bevan Walsh
believes in educating our youth on not only how to protect themselves
from becoming a victim of a crime, but also in preventing them from
committing crimes. A number of initiatives are available to schools that
we hope our community will take advantage of:
·
The dangers of
Sexting: The judicial system does not consider not knowing the law a
legal defense. Contact our office to have a prosecutor speak to your
students about the dangers of Sexting.
·
Safety Kids
Calendars: Area middle-schools are invited to draw pictures depicting
the 12 Rules for Staying Safe.
·
Internet Safety:
Protect your children from online predators and talk to them about safe
Internet activities.
·
Parent Education:
If you would like to have Prosecutor Walsh or a designated prosecutor
come to your school to talk to parents about safety subjects, such as
protecting your children, Internet safety, Sexting or other topics,
please contact April
Wiesner at (330) 643-8386.
