A super thank you to LTG Susie Meyer for her informative presentation at our November 16th meeting. Susie helped to impress upon us the serious nature of the tasks we need to perform to keep our youth safe. We were reminded of the “Rule of 3”, which covers transporting students, as well as common forms of communication like texting and emails. Basically, we need to include another in all interactions with youth… and try to never do anything “one on one”. In addition, Susie shared the Youth Protection Helpline number and suggested we ALL put it in our phones. That number is: 866-607- SAFE.
