#ICANHELP is set to deliver a powerful presentation on the importance of digital safety to more than 395 students at Horton on March 28. The presentation will highlight how students and adults can maintain a positive digital footprint and be a Digital First Responder in order to navigate around a digital world and provide a curriculum in which these students will spread the message.
#ICANHELP is a non-profit corporation that educates on the proper use of social media, empowers students to deal with conflict, negativity, and harassment online. It will also instruct students and adults on how to “We don’t usually think of it, but just like the way negativity can spread, people can be swayed or encouraged when the majority are doing ‘good’ online. Students just need to be shown how to respond to the negativity. We need to empower our future generation to take action against all the issues that are arising with technology,” says co-founder Kim Karr. “Through #ICANHELP students are learning that kindness is saving lives and it doesn’t have to be anything big- a simple smile or a nice post-it note on a locker might be all it takes.”
