The nonprofit organization Empowering Adults - Protecting Children is offering a free presentation to families, teachers and child care workers this week on preventing child sexual abuse.

The presentation, "Deliver them from evil," is being offered Tuesday at 7 p.m. at The Heart Church, 6215 S. 107th Ave. East. It is free and open to the public.

EAPC founder Sharon Doty is leading the presentation, which is an interactive theatrical program that aims to educate parents on 10 signs and behaviors of a potential sexual predator and how they groom children to be victims.

It also provides information on what to do if someone suspects abuse is happening and how to intervene.

Doty and a team of experts developed a prevention program for the U.S. Catholic Diocese. She founded Tulsa-based EAPC and now conducts trainings across the country. For more on EAPC and the free presentation, go to tulsaworld.com/eapc.
