Welcome to SafetyNet, Smart Cyber Choices®
SafetyNet: Smart Cyber Choices® is a collaborative cyber safety education program of the San Diego Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and the San Diego Police Foundation. This program was created in large part because law enforcement needs the help of informed adults and children to help reduce cyber victimization of kids. Keeping kids safe in the cyber world requires three things
- Keep current about what is happening in cyberspace
- Keep checking on what kids are doing online
- Keep communicating
It's up to you to help guide them towards making smart cyber choices.
