Next week, we're talking about something every parent thinks about: keeping our kids safer online.

June is National Internet Safety Month, and we want you to feel equipped to navigate a digital world that keeps changing faster than any of us can keep up with.

Join us Thursday, June 11, at 12:00 PM CT for our free live webinar, Protecting Children in a Digital World.

Our panel includes expertise in child protection — but more importantly, they are parents raising kids of their own. They'll share what they've learned about social media risks, gaming platforms, and emerging threats like sextortion and AI.

There's still time to save your spot. Register today: https://traffickinginstitute.org/protecting-children-in-a-digital-world-webinar/
