Jacksonville, FL - Enough Is Enough (EIE) President Donna
Rice Hughes educated federal, state and local law enforcement investigators,
forensic experts and prosecutors to prevent the online exploitation of children
at the 2010 Internet Crimes Against Children National Conference.
"We developed the Internet Safety 101 program to educate,
equip and empower parents, educators and law enforcement to protect children
from pornography, predators, cyberbullies and to keep kids safe on social
networking sites, gaming and mobile devices," commented Rice Hughes. "Our nation's Internet Crimes Against
Children Task Force officers face the dual challenge of catching the bad guys
while also providing public education to prevent Internet-initiated crimes against
children, so we are pleased to be able to provide this resource to help them
fulfill their public education requirement."
Each year, the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC)
National Conference brings hundreds of law enforcement investigators, prosecutors
and other federal employees to participate in workshops and lectures to further
their knowledge and provide them with the tools necessary to combat the online
exploitation of children.
EIE's four-part DVD teaching series, accompanying workbook,
and Web site - www.internetsafety101.org
- are designed to bring world-class online safety experts directly to
individuals and groups. Included in the high-definition video series are
poignant true stories, savvy dialogues and exclusive footage from victims and a
variety of experts in the field of law enforcement, technology and psychology. Law
enforcement and community trainers can use Internet Safety 101SM's
in-depth materials, particularly the practical, easy-to-use "Rules 'N
Tools®" booklet, to engage their community in a meaningful
dialogue about common-sense ways to keep them out of harm's way.
EIE's Internet Safety 101SM national
partners include: the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice
and Delinquency Prevention; AOL; Google; MySpace; Verizon; Microsoft; AT&T;
and The Salvation Army.
