Safety Skills for Schools, Families, and Girls
The Kidpower Guatemala Center was founded in 2014. Center Director Roxana Marroquín teaches in-person workshops to people of all ages.
Our services prevent harm and strengthen relationships
- We work with students, educators, and parents to teach social and emotional skills that prevent bullying, sexual abuse, and other harmful behaviors.
- We provide Girlpower training for teen girls, teaching safety skills for independence, wise decision-making, respectful friendships and dating relationships, and resisting peer pressure.
- We offer personalized Kidpower workshops in the privacy of your own home or business, organizing private trainings for families or companies – for the children of their employees.
- We prepare young people and adults with self-protection knowledge and skills for taking charge of their safety and wellbeing.
Kidpower For Families

“Kidpower is an extraordinary program that addresses many safety topics that parents do not always have the resources to teach or reinforce. Roxana teaches in ways that are practical, simple, and engaging, with real-world examples. It has been an incredible experience for me and my son, who now feels a personal passion for Kidpower! Thank you to Roxana and Kidpower for all the inner power that they have helped to ignite and strengthen in my son.”

Kidpower For Schools

“I am so pleased with the impact of the Kidpower program on our school community. We have learned to identify situations in which children might be at risk, and the children have learned simple techniques to defend themselves. They feel empowered! Roxana is so entertaining, she keeps the children focused using puppets and makes the workshops very active and fun. We will continue to use Kidpower all year as part of our curriculum.”

Girlpower program for girls 13+ up and young women

“Our teen daughter was struggling with emotional exhaustion and pressure at school from several girls, which led to her having anxiety attacks about going to class. From the first day our daughter started Girlpower, we saw a big change! She recovered her self-esteem, her confidence, her security, her joy and her good attitude! Now she can express what she feels. She recognizes harmful behavior, sets boundaries and walks away from people who are acting hurtfully. She believes in her importance and value. Thank you, Roxana, for changing our daughter’s life!”
