Study: NetSmartz Increases Awareness of Internet Risks
Research conducted by the University of New Hampshire suggests that NetSmartz Workshop, created by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and Boys & Girls Clubs of America, is effective in teaching children about safe Internet usage. The National Law Center supports NetSmartz and other Internet safety websites and encourages all parents and teachers to use these tools to educate children about the hazards of the Internet.
