About

Technology can do so many amazing things. It can offer new ways to express yourself, bring you closer with friends and family, help you learn new things and it can be a lot of fun. But, depending on how it is used, it can also bring real risks – from cyber bullying, to illicit drug sales, scams, exploitation, and more. That’s why it’s so important to learn strategies to help keep you and your community safe online.

We hope that after completing this online safety program, you’ll have a better understanding of the resources and tools available to you, and actions you can take if you ever find yourself feeling uncomfortable or unsafe online. This program covers serious topics. If you’re a teen, we recommend that you consider completing it with a parent or trusted adult so you can ask questions and have follow up conversations.
