Rex Finds His ROAR compliments the ROAR program created by The CARE Center and is the perfect tool for parents and caregivers to read at home with their children to begin a conversation about how to be safe in some tough situations.

Rex and his animal friends will teach children as young as three that their bodies are their own, they should never keep secrets that make them feel sad or scared, and to identify trusted adults they can always go to for help.

When we teach children about body safety, we empower them to protect themselves from abuse.
