“Everyone is capable of becoming an advocate for children, and the online nature of this course makes it all the more accessible to a wider audience,” says Arturo Fuentes, Director of Philanthropy at Young Living Essential Oils. “We invest in programs like this as part of our larger mission to nurture potential and rescue the harmed, so that children are free to dream and create with safety parameters in place.”
The prevalence of perpetrators grooming and exploiting children online is growing at an alarming rate—the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children saw an 82 percent increase in reports concerning online enticement last year, which included an alarming new trend where offenders aggressively blackmail children for financial gain.
While completing the course, users will learn what online exploitation is, gain tools and insight into how to spot key danger signs, discover tips for digital safeguards, become more confident having these conversations with children, and know what actions to take if a child is being cyberbullied. Parents, educators, caregivers, and all those who complete the three-course module will join the Young Living Foundation in pledging to protect children worldwide.

Start the training today at The D. Gary Young, Young Living Foundation.
