Safety Education for our Children

Magenu founded by Shani & Eli Verschleiser

After meeting with dozens of parents Shani and Eli Verschleiser decided to tackle yet another community issue. The Safety of Our Children. After much press relating to the topic Dr. Shani Verschleiser, AuD, LMSW decided it is about time our community implements this. Shani, a mother of three is on a mission to educate teachers, parents, and children about the topics of safety. THE SAFETY OF OUR CHILDREN IS OUR FIRST RESPONSIBILITY is the Magenu tag line. Shani and Eli Verschleiser stated, there are too many safety issues within the community, and no one has taken the correct steps to do anything about it.
