Sexual predators and child traffickers can deceive adults and entire communities.
Predators groom victims by gaining their trust before gradually revealing the truth of their intentions.
Teaching young people to recognize unsafe adult behaviors can empower them to seek help.
Missing U.S. Children
~460,000 U.S. children go missing every year, with 19% at risk for sex trafficking.

Our Walking Wise® mission is to equip adults with the knowledge and tools to educate young people on 12 critical topics related to sexual abuse and child sexual exploitation.
Walking Wise has developed evidence-based education for adults and adolescents in collaboration with survivor leaders and advocacy experts, to help deliver content that is sensitive to the effects of trauma.
Our online course is accredited for Continuing Education (CME/CE) credits by the Postgraduate Institute for Medicine (PIM) and the Academy of Forensic Nursing (AFN).
Walking Wise helps young people develop life skills through age appropriate, interactive lessons and animated explanations.
As trusted mentors, youth leaders can play a vital role in equipping teens with the knowledge that will help protect them from sexual predators.
Our 12 learning modules can be integrated into a training platform or accessed by associates online via a Walking Wise subscription.
