Pause. Think. Stay Safe Online. 📱💻

June is Internet Safety Month! As children and teens spend more time online, it is important to help them make safe and responsible choices when using social media, gaming apps, and other digital platforms.

Families can help by having regular conversations about protecting personal information, avoiding communication with strangers, reporting inappropriate messages, and speaking with a trusted adult when something does not feel right.

Simple habits—such as using strong passwords, enabling multifactor authentication, thinking before clicking links, and updating devices—can also help protect the entire family online.

Let’s work together to help young people stay safe, confident, and informed in today’s digital world. 💚

Are you keeping your kids safe online?

Thanks to our amazing supporters, we’ve reached our $100,000 match goal! But there’s still more to do—join us in protecting children and supporting our mission.

Today’s mini painting class tied into a conversation about communication!

🎨 There isn’t always one “right” way to do things
🖌️ Patience matters
💬 Everyone sees things differently
🔄 Mistakes are part of the process
🚫 Complaints are more helpful when they come with clear communication
🤝 Listening is just as important as speaking

Sometimes love can feel confusing — especially when someone says it’s because they care. But love shouldn’t come with ultimatums, guilt trips, or control.

🚩 Telling you who you can talk to
🚩 Constantly checking your location
🚩 Making you feel bad for setting boundaries

If you’re asking, “Is this love or control?” — we’re here to talk through it with you. Text “LOVE” to 22522.
