Public Safety Bulletin- Internet Safety Month

June is “Internet Safety Month” and the Aumsville Police Department would like to remind parents and children alike that we need to be aware of the dangers of the internet, as well as its valuable uses.  With increased usage of the internet because of distance learning due to the Covid Pandemic, children are at greater risk of being targeted by predators or scams.  Please take the time to review some of the safety tips listed in the attached link from Missing and Exploited Children website.  Know what sites your children are going to, what they are looking at, and what they are sending and receiving.  We need to keep our children safe, and this starts at home.
