“Speaking to Your Kids about Personal Safety” is a parenting workshop conducted by Rabbi Yakov Horowitz, Director of The Center for Jewish Family Life’s Project YES and dean of Yeshiva Darchei Noam in Monsey, NY. Part of the Project YES "Keep Our Children Safe" initiative, it was designed to raise awareness among parents in our community about the importance of speaking to our children about safety and personal space. This workshop series was dedicated by Linda and Mark Karasick in loving memory of her mother Ruth Ulevitch Lang, Ratzi bas Reb Zev. This video was produced with the assistance of a grant from Michael and Estelle Stein in loving memory of Mordechai Menachem ben R' Zev and Batsheva bas R' Moshe.
