The mission of Safe Connects is to promote Internet literacy and to teach Internet safety and online etiquette to elementary and middle school children through an interactive workshop conducted by teen facilitators. The Safe Connects lesson plan and accompanying worksheets cover important topics such as Passwords, Chat Rooms, Computer Viruses, and Internet Predators. During 2006, the Safe Connects program was presented at local middle schools and the first Safe Connects summer program was held at IUPUI. During the Safe Connects summer program, IPS students learned about Internet safety, leadership, and college preparation.
