Social Media for Parents

This Thursday, April 22^nd we’re partnering with Raising Arizona Kids magazine to host a special event for parents to help them ensure their children are safe online. We’ll talk about the popular social networking tools and how they can be safely used, what information profiles contain and how to implement privacy settings. Additionally, we’ll go beyond the safety concerns and talk about the benefits of having your children online and listen to the panelists’ own experiences and how they have set boundaries within their families.

Help us spread the word!

The parents who need this the most are more likely to not be online. Help us reach them by emailing everyone you know who could benefit from this session. To assist you with getting the word out we’ve placed a simple email text on the Social Media for Parents page for you to use – just copy/paste and hit send.

Want to do more?

You don’t have to be a parent to attend, everyone is welcome. So join us, meet the parents, share your experiences and expertise.
