Digital Positivity – Keeping Kids Safe Online
JOIN US ONLINE FOR THIS LIVE EVENT Featuring Expert Trisha Prabhu!
Amidst the many challenges COVID-19 has presented, it has also threatened the digital positivity and safety that we strive to create for our children. With young people increasingly living their lives online (taking classes, connecting with the world, etc.), the result, we fear, may be online hate. Join ReThink Founder and CEO Trisha Prabhu for a conversation on tackling cyberbullying, and empowering young people to be the best they can online. This program will include a discussion of cyberbullying – what it is (in its many forms), who it most impacts, and why science says it happens, as well as a comprehensive introduction to the ReThink tool, an app that encourages tweens and teens to make positive decisions online. Parents/educators will learn the most recent, important facts about cyberbullying, as well as gain exposure to an up-and-coming tool to address it. We hope you’ll join us!
REGISTER NOW! Only those who RSVP, will receive a link to access the event.
We thank you for being a part of this deeply important conversation.
