Youth Life Program
We protect young individuals from online predators by raising awareness, educating youth, implementing safety measures, driving the development of technology-based solutions, and collaborating with partner organizations. Our efforts prioritize areas where vulnerability is heightened, including rural regions and communities facing socioeconomic challenges. Additionally, we conduct research to better understand the factors that increase susceptibility to cybercrimes, ensuring our approach remains effective and impactful.
