HOW it WORKS

We also ask attendees to prepare for the training by completing a reading and reflection assignment prior to the training.  This assignment is required for those who wish to become a direct care Cherished Volunteer, and recommended for everyone participating. The following books are available at Amazon.com:

(1) Boundaries by Henry Cloud & John Townsend (Chapters 1, 2, 4, 14 & 15);

(2) Safe People by Henry Cloud & John Townsend (Chapters 9, 10 & 12)

(3) Treating the Adult Survivor of Childhood Sexual Abuse, by Jody Messler Davies & Mary Gail Frawley (Chapters 3, 7 & 8)

Scanned chapters are also available here.

Once you have completed the reading, please submit a confidential response to kate@cherishedla.org.  Your response need only be between 600 and 1,000 words answering the following:

(1) Reflect on a time when you encountered an unsafe person or you were an unsafe person.
