🌟 The First-Ever Interactive Education and Prevention Program🌟
The Maya’s Magical Adventures program is expanding into the first comprehensive, trauma-informed child abuse prevention initiative rooted in creative storytelling and early empowerment. What began as a children’s book series is now evolving into a national curriculum model, offering workshops, animated learning content, and guided programming for schools, families, and advocacy centers.
Through partnerships with the Chicago Children’s Advocacy Center, National Children’s Alliance, Imagine Theater Chicago, and Mainstages Children’s Theater NYC, the program combines narrative learning with expert-informed tools to teach body safety, emotional intelligence, and boundary-setting from a young age.
At its core, this initiative is survivor-led and solution-driven, built to transform how communities and families engage with prevention. centering children’s voices, empowering caregivers, and equipping educators with accessible, culturally responsive content that creates safer spaces for every child.
