[September 12, 2020]
This year, the virtual and hybrid learning
models adopted by many schools may cause some students to stay home
alone while their parents go back to work. “Staying Safe at Home” is
a new, virtual program offered by University of Illinois Extension
and 4-H that will give children and parents the tools needed to keep
students safe while home alone. Two separate sessions will be
offered.
|
The first session, aimed at parents, will give
parents and guardians tips on internet security, communication, and
creating safety plans. It will take place on Tuesday, September 15
at 7 pm.
The second session, geared towards youth, will touch on first aid,
snack safety, and following the safety plans. It will take place on
Tuesday, September 22 at 6 pm.
Both sessions will be free and open to the public.
However, advanced registration is required by the Monday before the
session takes place. The sessions will be held on the Zoom video
conferencing platform. The Zoom meeting link and access information
will be sent out the morning of each respective session. You can
register for one or both sessions at
