Optimist International adopted a new program this year for internet safety awareness. Directed at adults, the Optimist International Internet Safety Awareness program informs parents and guardians what they need to do in their home to keep kids away from sexual predators and cyber-bullying. It also teaches lessons about keeping your identity safe online, a message that protects adults as well as children.
Like any new program, few have yet to wrap their arms around it because they are unsure how to move forward. Lucky for us, Robert Schiller, a member of the International Committee gave the presentation to the West Bloomfield, Michigan community and they have posted the presentation online for all to see.
