CHILD EXPLOITATION

Internet Safety for Children

Exploitation of children is a violation of their innocence and basic rights. Exploitation comes in many forms. Protect Student Health Georgia believes children should be free to grow up in the secure environment of loving families and communities. We will continue to educate, inform and unite people in action to protect children from those who seek to abuse, violate or use them for their own personal interests.

The Human Trafficking of children is undeniably one of the most reprehensible methods of exploiting a child, and the threat is ever-increasing. Protect Student Health Georgia works to alert people to this threat and provide resources to help parents protect their children.
