Helping Families Cross The Digital Divide, Digital Shepherds

 

Digital Shepherds is a non-profit organization. Our multi-part mission is: To bring as much equipment to our workshops as we are able and actually SHOW parents how to set these gadgets up to protect their children. We are all about the "live demo" and not just notes and hand-outs. We are a mobile parental lab AND lecture.

 

To erase the fear and apprehension parents often experience as their children begin to use the internet and communications devices by equipping them with the tools to raise responsible, 'net savvy citizens.

 

To truly connect with America's youth, inspiring them to take ownership of internet and communications technology through various assemblies and curricula which stress early education in internet safety, digital and media literacy and digital abuse prevention (coming soon!). It is their future and they respond positively to a message of personal responsibility, expectation and empowerment.

 

To better prepare educators to handle the changing digital landscape in their classrooms.
