With 17 million youth ages 12 through 17 using the Internet it is crucial to empower them to make responsible decisions online. The Internet provides immediate access to a wealth of information and the ability to communicate with friends and family all over the world. However, it is also important to understand the potential risks children can be exposed to including inappropriate material, sexual solicitation, cyberbullying, or theft of personal information.

NetSmartz Internet safety presentations for grades K-2, 3-6, middle and high school, and parents/communities are tailored to the attention span and needs of each audience.
