Gretna Police Department is the First Police Partner in Prevention
in the Nation!
We are thrilled to announce that the Gretna Police Department is a
Darkness to Light (D2L) Police Partner in Prevention! Ninety-eight percent of the Gretna Police
Department completed the Darkness to Light Stewards of Children training
facilitated by the JCAC. Gretna PD is
the first Police Partner in Prevention in the nation!
Adequate prevention and response to child sexual abuse is the
responsibility of adults—this is the core of the Darkness to Light Stewards of
Children program. D2L is a non-profit that pursues the mission of reducing
child sexual abuse through education and awareness. The training is the only evidence-based
program that “increase(s) knowledge, improve(s) attitudes and change(s)
child-protective behavior” of those who participate. To learn more about the work of Darkness to
Light, please visit their website: http://www.d2l.org/
JCAC strongly encourages you and your organization to attend our
next Stewards of Children training on June
14 from 1-4pm at the Coroner’s Office Auditorium in Harvey. The JCAC can
also schedule a training prior to this date for a group of 10 or
more. To register or request a training, or to learn more about us, please call the Jefferson
Children's Advocacy
Center at (504) 364-3857 or

For every individual adult who attends this training, up to 10
children can be protected from sexual abuse. Help us raise awareness and take
responsibility for preventing child sexual abuse in our community together…call
