Netsmartz®

NetSmartz® is an interactive, educational resource for
children ages 5-17, parents, guardians, educators, and law enforcement
that uses age-appropriate, 3-D activities to teach children how to stay
safer on the Internet.
The goal of NetSmartz is to extend the safety awareness of children to
prevent victimization and increase self-confidence whenever they go online.
These goals include how to
- enhance the ability of children to recognize dangers on the Internet
- encourage children to report victimization to a trusted adult
- support and enhance community education efforts
- increase communication between adults and children about online safety
- enhance the ability of children to understand that people they first
"meet" on the Internet should never be considered their friend
NetSmartz teaches children the rules for online safety.
