Open the door to success!
Empower youth with emotional tools to stay safe from bullies, drugs, violence, and other self-destructive behaviors!
While feeding the homeless with Mother Mary Ann Wright, Stephanie Mann saw the consequences of child abuse (mental, physical, and sexual) and neglect. Over the years, drug addicts and former inmates have asked for help. They didnt know how to turn their lives around and become productive citizens. Mann worked with Pastor Flemon Henry and formed support groups in Oakland, California. She saw how abuse and neglect created angry men who escaped into drugs and often abused women. Many of our homeless citizens never learned how to discover their inner power to develop their identity, self-confidence, and ability to stay centered. As a result of the support groups, homeless men got jobs or woke up and entered drug rehab.
We can empower youth! Stephanie has realized that most parents demonstrate and share healthy values with children. Neglected or abused adults never learned how to raise centered children. This book gives adults and youth the tools to help one another. Every human being has the inner power to develop courage, character, and a self-protective conscience. These basic tools help youth make healthy choices and connect with others so they can reach their God-given potential.

Autoren-Porträt von Stephanie L. Mann
Stephanie L. Mann Author, Crime and Violence Prevention Consultant, Founder, Safe Kids Now National Network
Stephanie Lee Mann was born in Boston, Massachusetts, but moved many times while growing up. The children in the family witnessed alcoholism and abuse from their father. Her twice-divorced parents created a difficult childhood. After her mother's boyfriend moved in, Stephanie was abandoned in Mexico City at age fifteen, and she didn't speak the language. She learned how to survive and thrive in spite of abuse and neglect.
Today, parents are often preoccupied and fail to create a healthy and supportive environment for children. Stephanie has learned how to take control of her life and help others. After she was married and became a mother, she became involved in her community. Her books help adults fill the void for children who need love and support.
In 1975, Stephanie coauthored Alternative to Fear: Guidelines to Safer Neighborhoods. Her community of seventeen thousand residents had a crime wave with no local police department. As a member of an appointed volunteer committee, she took charge and implemented a neighborhood-responsibility program. The committee of ten volunteers organized and hosted neighborhood meetings. Within two and a half years, residents reduced crime 48 percent. Alternative to Fear: Guidelines for Safer Neighborhoods also helped educate police about the potential of citizens and popularized the neighborhood watch programs. California's first lady Nancy Reagan contacted the California Youth Authority. They funded the guidebook, which was distributed to thousands of police departments, training centers, and state and government agencies.
Mann worked as a community leader, neighborhood organizer, county coordinator, and state consultant and coauthored Safe Homes, Safe Neighborhoods: Stopping Crime Where You Live (Nolo Press 1993). She promoted safe neighborhoods and was interviewed over 140 times on TV and radio, including

Stephanie started a homeless-men's support group while working with the Mother Mary Ann Wright Foundation in Oakland, California. From this support group, she recognized the need to support children at an early age, which prompted her to write Street-Safe Kids, a ten-step guide to help youth avoid bullies, drugs, gangs, violence, and grow strong from within to develop self-confidence and stay centered.
In 2010, while working in Richmond, California, with Mother's Against Senseless Killings, Mann saw people too scared and angry to be involved or report crimes. Recognizing the need, she wrote The Adopt-A-Block Guidebook, a ten-step, easy-to-follow guide for existing church groups and civic organizations whose members already know and trust one another. This book gives individuals and groups the tools to reach out and help others.
In 2015, Safe Kids Now and the CARR Foundation developed the Safe Neighborhoods Program for City Leaders.
Stephanie states, "Every child deserves to grow up in a safe, healthy home and neighborhood. Community leaders can make that happen if they give citizens and organizations the tools to create safer families and communities."
