The staff of St. Matthew Korean Catholic Center Religious Education Program and the Archdioceses of Los Angeles are committed to your child’s safety and well-being. We present the Empowering God’s Children and Young People© Safety Program to our students each year. Child sexual abuse continues to afflict our society. There is an ongoing need for children and young people to be empowered with the knowledge and tools to keep themselves and others safe from harm. This Archdiocesan Program includes a catechetical connection that highlights God’s love and desire for the health and safety of all children and young people.

We will be presenting “Year 2: Boundaries and Bullying.” The goal of this lesson is to help children identify and establish personal boundaries and recognize the signs and dangers of bullying. All children must be taught the importance of protecting their boundaries to keep themselves and their peers safe from abuse. This lesson also identifies warning signs of online boundary and bullying violations. The program has proven to be invaluable in empowering all children to be vigilant in all their relationships.  

The program will be presented to our students during October. Parents or guardians must give permission for their child(ren) to participate in this Safety Program by returning the completed permission slip below. If you would like additional information regarding the Safety Program or to review the materials, please contact Lydia Park at (213) 531-7216 or lydia083010@gmail.com.
