When Parents Lean In: Practical Sexual Awareness for Parents at Every Stage

  • The Firehouse Dream 511 Saint Charles Road Maywood, IL (map)

The Healing Chair workshop is created to support parents and caretakers in building safer, more informed and more connected families. This gathering offers a space for learning, reflection, and meaningful conversation around sexual awareness, prevention, and healing. 

Sexual abuse and boundary violations can deeply impact how children see themselves, their relationships, and their sense of safety. Many caregivers want to protect their children but feel unsure how to start these conversations. This workshop provides practical language, guidance, and tools to help families navigate these topics with confidence and care. 

Together, we will explore how to:

  • Engage in brave, honest, and age-appropriate conversations

  • Recognize signs of risk and vulnerability

  • Support children's emotional and physical boundaries 

  • Create homes rooted in safety, trust, and open communication

  • Strengthen community awareness and prevention efforts

Participants will leave feeling more confident, empowered, and prepared to support and protect the young people in their lives.
