In partnership with The Ministry of Education and Childcare’s erase strategy, due to high demand, Safer Schools Together is offering an additional “Social Media Awareness” Family Session on December 5th at 7:30 pm (MST).
This session covers all things digital, from how to be a good digital citizen, the criminal consequences of cyberbullying, and how to report and receive support in cases of sexting/sextortion.

- The importance of caring for peers both online and offline
- Geo-locational settings and the dangers of social media and cell phone misuse
- The social and legal consequences of cyberbullying behaviour as well as possession and distribution of intimate images (sexting and sextortion)
