2006-2007 The crisis. of. our children being exploited.

In certain regions, such as Wolf Point and otherreservations in the United States, there is a lack of adequate policing.Similar to northern Alberta, these areas are so isolated that there are fewresidences for law enforcement officers. Police stations are also sparse andoften hours away from these communities, making evidence collection andprosecution challenging. The current situation highlights the need foraddressing this crisis. Instead of solely educating children about appropriateand inappropriate touch and instructing them on what to do if they areassaulted, it is important to prepare them for potential incidents. It isessential to ensure support systems are in place to help children have thecourage to report their experiences and pursue justice.
