City of Burnaby Crime Prevention Services invites you to join us for free information sessions on a variety of topics to help keep you informed on ways to stay safe. Stay informed on the latest trends in crime prevention and what to look out for. New information sessions are added each month.
Digital spaces such as gaming platforms, social media and messaging apps are a regular part of daily life for many children and youth. This session is designed to help parents and caregivers better understand these online environments and learn how to prevent child sexual exploitation.
A guest speaker from PLEA Community Services Society of BC will provide an overview of commonly used apps and platforms, share practical online safety strategies and offer guidance on having open, age-appropriate conversations with children and youth about their online activities. Topics include online safety for children and youth, signs of luring and grooming and what caregivers can do to help prevent harm and respond to concerns.
This free session is intended for parents, caregivers and anyone who supports children and youth.
