Program enhances kids’ personal safety skills
West Milford — The Maple Road School PTO
recently hosted a program sponsored by Sheriff Jerry Spezialle’s
Community Policing Division. Students were offered the opportunity to
participate in a ten-hour intensive course called RAD: Resisting
Aggression Defensively. The creed of the program was simple: No one has
the right to harm a child; every child is a person worthy of dignity
and respect.
Under the direction of Officer Herbert Krygsman,
RAD Kids coordinator/instructor, the students learned how to recognize,
avoid and escape violence and abuse.
This program was provided free of charge by the
County Sheriff’s Department. A special awards was held at the end of
the course, and all who participated gained knowledge in terms of
personal safety skills and self-esteem.
