U.S. Attorney’s Office Committed to Protecting Children in the Digital Age
WHEELING, WEST VIRGINIA - The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of West Virginia is proud to share two new online safety flyers designed to help parents, caregivers, educators, and community leaders safeguard children in an increasingly digital world.
"Protecting children in today's digital world requires vigilance, teamwork, and a shared commitment to their well-being," said U.S. Attorney Matthew L. Harvey. "By empowering families and communities with clear, practical information, we strengthen our ability to keep every child safe online."
As technology continues to evolve, so do the risks facing our youth. These handouts provide practical guidance to help adults understand online dangers, recognize warning signs, and take proactive steps to keep children safe on smartphones, the internet, and social media platforms.
We encourage schools, community organizations, and families across West Virginia to use these resources and share them widely. By spreading this information, we strengthen our collective ability to protect children and support safe online habits.
Together, we can help make the digital world a safer place for our most vulnerable.
Thank you to all our partners for your continued commitment to child safety.
