"Protecting Kids Online"

Inform parents of school-age children about the dangers lurking on the Internet and show parents how they can keep their children safe online.

JPL interviewed parents, kids, educators and experts on Internet safety to show parents the potential dangers their children face when they use the Internet and cell phones. To drive home the message, we described real stories about sexual predators and cyber bullies.

The video has been widely acclaimed by educators and parents. The program is reaching tens of thousands of Pennsylvanians through schools and local broadcasts.

"The quality of your video is top drawer. You are to be commended for creating such a compelling, informative video and also for undertaking such a massive distribution across Pennsylvania (every elementary and middle school principal in the Commonwealth). What resonates in this video is the fact that these are Pennsylvania people you have found and you have told their stories so artfully."
