Program Description
This program is designed to educate and empower the use of social media with good intent. It clearly provides guidelines and strategies to promote a healthy approach to online behavior. Don't Press Send founder, Katie Schumacher, is the author of "Don't Press Send: A Mindful Approach to Social Media, An Education In Cyber Civics" and has presented a TED Talk on this extremely relevant and important topic. Teaching today's youth to Think Before They Click and Pause Before They Post is a necessity for not only kindness, but also for instilling a healthy way of communicating online.

This course can be offered in-person, via Zoom or Google Hangouts Meet, or on-demand through the Don't Press Send Virtual Program website. To explore options for your school, contact us at katiedps@gmail.com
