Fortify: A Teen Boy's Guide on Sexual Abuse Prevention and Body Safety

Studies show that 43% of boys in high school and young men in college are victims of unwanted sexual experiences. And perhaps surprisingly, a sobering 95% of the aggressors were female acquaintances of the victims. Fortify was explicitly created to address the dangers of sexual abuse teenage boys face daily and to provide practical tools for establishing personal safety boundaries.

Fortify comes with a parent guide that serves as an additional prevention tool. This parent guide has been created to guide parents on implementing prevention practices into their family’s everyday lives. We encourage you to consider yourself part of your child’s armor. Parents are the shield that protects them from danger and gives them the strength and support necessary to defend themselves. Together, you and your teen will have the power of prevention.
