Cover Story: This study examines the proactive role of Druze and Muslim kindergarten teachers in addressing and coping with the CSA of their kindergarten students in Israel. The study used a qualitative thematic analysis to investigate, and it revealed three distinct themes: (1) participants experienced fear and concern for their own children and themselves when dealing with CSA incidents involving their students; (2) they took a proactive role inside their homes to protect their own children; and (3) there was proactivity among educators within religious communities, using professional and religious principles to support CSA survivors and raise awareness among parents. The study highlights the need for comprehensive, ethnically and religiously relevant, support for kindergarten teachers facing CSA in their schools. View this paper
