Smart Social
Developed in partnership with the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, Smart Social is intended to help youth stay safe online and be smart on social media. This campaign addresses common issues youth deal with today, like cyberbullying, sexting and screen time, and offers tips on how to safely navigate our digital world.
Participate in Smart Social
Campaign materials are available free-of-charge and consist of six bilingual posters. Educators and School Resource Officers are encouraged to order and display these posters to join us in our efforts to help promote online safety.
