"All Kids Count" (www.allkidscount.net) was initially funded by the U.S. Department of Justice through two congressionally mandated grants, and the active support of America's leading groups in law enforcement and education. Its purpose is to educate children, as well as parents/guardians, on the critical issues of internet safety, preventing targeted school violence, and other important safety topics.
"The Power of 'No'" is one of three episodes of AKC Film Series #1, targeted for ages 9 and up. Based on reactions to the first program and the public appreciation it’s garnered, we are hoping to obtain financial support from corporations, foundations and individual philanthropists. This funding will help develop and produce the final two “All Kids Count” installments, one designed for “parent-only” viewing, the other for ages 5-8. A future goal is to launch a highly visible promotional and media campaign, to create public awareness of the the child-safety/crime prevention programs and duly recognize its sponsors.
What distinguishes "All Kids Count” from traditional child-safety programs is that there are no authority figures instructing kids on the "rules” or how to behave. Rather, the critical information is conveyed in an "infotainment" style, where the viewer watches young people interact and experiences their adventures. The unique thematic approach to AKC was developed after conducting nationwide focus groups with hundreds of children, parents, and educators. By interviewing the target audiences, we heard their perspectives on the topics and listened to ideas on what they would like to see conveyed.
