Elyssa's Mission Parent Training Video (English and Spanish)
Elyssa’s Mission® provides resources to help prevent teen suicide.
The community-based organization was founded in 2006 in honor of Elyssa, a bright, gifted and outgoing Chicagoland girl who bravely battled post-traumatic stress disorder and depression. Elyssa’s Mission® provides hands-on support to area public and private schools in order to educate students, staff, parents and guardians on how to recognize and assist those teens most at-risk. We have helped educate over one million students, staff and parents since inception.
Erin's Law
Erin’s Law was passed in 2011 and requires all public schools to implement age-appropriate, prevention-oriented sexual abuse and assault awareness and prevention education for students in early childhood through 12th grades. All District 122 employees are state-mandated reporters and are required to report allegations of abuse and/or neglect to the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS).
Parents can help students recognize and respond to unsafe situations. Parents should be available and children should know that no topic is “off limits” for discussion with parents. Additionally, parents should:
Talk to children about touching safety, private areas, and secrets
Empower children to say “no”, even to non-sexual touches if it makes the child uncomfortable
Be aware of who their child is spending time with
Monitor their child’s use of technology, as well as watch and listen to children’s behavior while on devices.
If you do not want your student to participate in age-appropriate, prevention-oriented sexual abuse and assault awareness and prevention education, please contact your student's school.
Be aware of warning signs of abuse:
Sudden nightmares or sleep problems
Mood swings: rage, fear, withdrawal
Changes in eating habits, such as loss of appetite
New or unusual fears or specific people or places
Changes in school performance or attendance
Suddenly has money, toys or gifts without reason
Reference to self as dirty, repulsive, or bad
Lack of personal care or hygiene
Risk-taking behaviors
Inappropriate sexual behaviors
