One of the most disturbing trends of our time is the increase in sex offenses against our children.

A study by the US Department of Justice found
- 67% of all victims of sexual assault were juveniles, under 18 years old
- Thirty-four percent of the victims were younger than 12
- One of every seven was less than 6 years old
This is such a tragedy but at least parents are becoming more aware of the problem. They're taking steps to safeguard their children by keeping them from going out alone or from going anywhere unsupervised.

If you're a parent, now there's even more you can do to protect your children.

Sex Offender Registry Information - Registration and Community Notification

In accordance with Megan's Law and The Jacob Wetterling Act, all 50 states are required to register sex offenders and perform community notification. However, each state differs in terms of how it administers its community notification process, what offenders are required to register, the duration of registration, what information is registered, how the information is shared, whether the public has access to the registry, who is granted access, methods of access, what information is shared - and that's just for starters.

Depending on the state, you may be able to obtain information from your state, city or county online registry, police department, sheriff's office, phone hotline or another agency in order to obtain information on specific offenders, information on all offenders in the state or a specific geographic location or you may be able to search the entire registry or part of it on such criteria as an offense type, physical characteristics, name, zip code and age.

Keeping your children safe in your neighborhood.Unfortunately no neighborhood is completely immune to crime. However, there are steps you can take to help keep your family and your neighborhood safe.

• Know where your children are. Have your children tell you or ask permission before leaving the house and give them a time to check in or be home. When possible, have them leave a phone number of where they will be.
• Help children learn important phone numbers. Have your children practice reciting their home phone number and address, and your work and cell phone numbers. If they have trouble memorizing these, write them down on a card and have them carry it at all times. Tell your children where you will be and the best way to reach you.
• Set limits on where your children can go in your neighborhood. Do you want them crossing busy roads? Playing in alleys or abandoned buildings? Are there certain homes in your neighborhood that you don't want your children to go to?
• Get to know your children's friends. Meet their parents before letting your children to go to their home and keep a list of their phone numbers. If you can't meet their parents, call and talk to them. Ask what your children might do at their house and if they will be supervised.
• Choose a safe house in your neighborhood. Pick a neighbor's house where your children can go if they need help. Point out other places they can go for help, like stores, libraries, and police stations.
• Teach children to settle arguments with words, not fists. Role-play talking out problems, walking away from fist fights, and what to do when confronted with bullies. Remind them that taunting and teasing can hurt friends and make enemies.
• Encourage children to get involved. Help your children get involved in what they like to do, whether it's sports, art, or anything else.
• Work together with your neighbors. Watch out for suspicious and unusual behavior in your neighborhood. Get to know your neighbors and their children so you can look out for one another.
