New Website Created
The Internet Safety Action Committee of Muskegon County (ISAC), a collaboration of local law enforcement, educators and nonprofit agencies, is pleased to announce the launch of a media campaign designed to educate adults about keeping the youth they love safe online. The campaign will include radio spots, billboards and the launch of www.beenbullied.com. The website is an exciting resource that parents can use to learn more about Internet safety and cyber-bullying. The website also features links to services and additional resources. To learn more, contact Kerri Roberts at the Child Abuse Council of Muskegon County at (231) 728-6410.
