What people are saying

Catherine Cerulli
Director of the Susan B. Anthony Center TRANSFORM Research Center, NY

Dr. Weaver is a creative, energetic trainer with the amazing combination of passion and empathy for a difficult subject: preventing child abuse and neglect. Even though I am an attorney who works in this space, I was inspired by Support Over Silence and now I walk through the world with my eyes more open.

Support Over Silence for KIDS provides helping professionals and community members with the culturally appropriate bystander intervention training they need to support caregivers.

Jill Seyfred,
Executive Director of Prevent Child Abuse Kentucky

The Support Over Silence for Kids training has become an invaluable asset in Prevent Child Abuse Kentucky's prevention strategy. It not only enhances our organizational effectiveness but also empowers Kentuckians to act with empathy and courage. The ripple effect of this initiative is felt across neighborhoods, schools, and public spaces, creating safer, more supportive environments for all children.  We are thrilled to support trainers across Kentucky and thank Nancy for her work in this arena! 

Shannon Moody, PhD, MSSW, CSW
Kentucky Youth Advocates

Support Over Silence and the practical, empowering tools that the training offers has created a shift in the mindset of our community partners around what it means to support parents and caregivers. Participating in this training offers opportunities that we have been seeking from an evidence-based approach that normalizes the struggles of parenting and also galvanizes actions that will meaningfully support our neighbors within everyday interactions. We are thrilled to collaborate with Dr. Weaver and her team to make all of our communities better places to live and parent.
