It Takes One Step
to Make a Difference
Step in for Kids is more than a campaign—it’s a roadmap for creating safer schools. We deliver proactive, school-based programs that equip teenagers and educators to recognise grooming behaviours, set boundaries, and foster protective environments where children are heard and supported. Guided by survivor insight and evidence-based strategies, we provide the tools and language communities need to step in with confidence. Because it takes one step to make a difference – and every one of us has a role to play in stepping in for kids.
