| Stop.Think.Connect. | | |
Girl Scouts of the USA has partnered with the U. S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and joined the Stop.Think.Connect. Campaign's National Network.
In general, the Campaign asks girls to:
» Stop - Before you use the Internet, take time to understand
the risks and learn how to spot potential problems.
» Think - Take a moment to be certain the path ahead is
clear. Watch for warning signs and consider how your
actions online could impact your safety-or your family's.
» Connect - Enjoy the Internet with confidence. Take the
right steps to safeguard yourself and your computer.
The campaign will provide Girl Scouts with tools and resources to help raise awareness among kids, teens and young adults about emerging online threats and the importance of being safe online.
