I’m Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum. Here in Florida we have expanded our efforts to keep our children safe online. My office has a dedicated cybercrime unit that is spending every day tracking down these predators. 

But investigation and prosecution is only half of that battle. Education will be the key to winning this fight. My office has developed and is presenting a 50-minute cybersafety program to middle and high school students throughout the state to educate children about safe internet use. 

Just last week, we reached the 50,000 student mark. But we need to reach them all. Every parent, grandparent, teacher and child needs to know the facts and must be ready to help us catch these predators before they can hurt other children. 

For more information or to request a cybersafety presentation at your child’s school, please visit my website safeflorida.net. Together, we can help protect Florida’s children.
