HURTING (The): Cutting for Relief
In this program, Ashley resorts to 'cutting' to cope with
an abusive father, who's regularly victimized her family
as far back as she can remember. Like a growing number
of teens nationwide, Ashley regularly cuts her arms
and legs, substituting her overwhelming inner pain and
rage with an external pain that she is seemingly better
able to manage. This last illusion is finally dispelled in
a heart-wrenching ending that finds a desperate Ashley
reaching out to a sympathetic teacher for help.

IT'S YOUR BODY! You're In Charge!
Empower even the youngest children to feel that they
have control over their own bodies. This program helps
them differentiate between good and bad touches,
learn that they have the right to say "no" to a touch
that makes them feel uncomfortable, understand the
"touching rule" and realize if they experience a bad
touch, they MUST speak up and tell an adult they trust
what happened. From the comfort of a hug or the joy of
a high-five, to tickling that starts out as fun, but turns
unpleasant, to the abusive touching of a private part
of a child's body, this program will give youngsters the
courage to protect themselves by speaking up!

IF IT HAPPENS
TO YOU:
Dealing with
Abuse
This program talks to upper elementary-aged children
about a difficult subject - abuse. Sensitive, ageappropriate
scenarios explore three types of abuse:
physical, verbal and sexual as seen though the eyes
of children. Viewers learn that victims of abuse are
NOT responsible for causing it. They MUST tell an
adult they trust what is happening - and continue on
telling until someone takes action to stop it. Whether
it's a father who gets angry and physically hurts a
child, a grown-up who uses words to continually
make a youngster feel worthless or a person who
touches the private parts of a child's body, this program
will encourage and empower youngsters who
are the victims of abuse to speak up and get help!

ABUSE: If It Happens to You
This program is designed to help young teens understand
that abuse, of all types, is more common than
they think and if it happens to them, they need to tell a
trusted adult. It examines the different types of abuse
that can occur: physical, emotional, and sexual, and
helps young teens understand that the victim is never
at fault and did not cause or deserve the abuse. One of
the biggest reasons victims don't speak out is because
they think no one will believe them. This program
assures young people that while this can happen in
some cases, the victim must continue to speak out
until someone listens and takes what they say seriously.
Use this program to educate your students and help
them come forward if they have been abused.

ONE HIT LEADS TO ANOTHER
The combination of detailed descriptions by abused
women and great dramatizations helps both male
and female viewers to understand the realities of
spousal abuse, what motivates this kind of activity,
and reveals the myths that surround it. Low selfesteem,
rather than straight anger, is the central
causal issue and the ability to quit habitual
spousal abuse is as problematic as recovery
from any other addiction. *Includes Guide.
