     Try checking out the Child Assault Prevention (CAP) Program.  Their 
     headquarters are in Columbus, Ohio, I believe.  They have conducted 
     research to evaluate their program and found it to be successful.  I'm 
     not sure of any specific citations.  The office there should be able 
     to give you a reference.  Jackie Reilly

Can anyone point me in the direction of research showing the effectiveness 
(or lack of effectiveness) of programs that teach young children (ages 4-6) 
how to protect themselves from child abuse & neglect or other forms of 
intentional injury (i.e., child abduction)?          
     
Thank you!
