Lethbridge offering online safety toolkit to parents

In a time when technology plays a significant role in the lives of children and adults, navigating digital risks this brings is crucial. The City of Lethbridge offers the updated Online Safety Toolkit through the Lethbridge Police Service website. The toolkit offers practical guidance on high-risk behaviors and covers topics including violence, cybersecurity, gang recruitment, fraud, and patent enforcement. Chris Andrade, Justice Program Officer with LPS explains why this tool is so important.

As part of the Builder Safer Communities (BSC) initiative, the toolkit was launched in October 2020.
