Protecting our youth online since 1998.
Safe Surfin' was founded by law enforcement officers who saw what happens when a predator reaches a child first. For nearly 30 years, we have trained families, schools, and police to get there sooner, with free tools and technology.
To implement and continually support internet safety education globally for all children, by providing training, technical assistance, and educational materials at no cost to the recipients.
We believe an informed child is a protected child. Our goal is to stop a predator before a crime ever happens, and to see technology used to brighten kids' lives instead of harm them.
We do that alongside the people kids already trust: parents, teachers, school resource officers, and the sheriffs and police who answer the call when something goes wrong.

In the community
Trusted by the people who protect our youth for a living.
Our work runs on partnerships with law enforcement, national child safety organizations, and community groups like the Loyal Order of Moose, whose members have carried our programs into towns across the country.
Every number on this page is somebody's child.
A mother tells, in her own words, what happened when an online predator reached her child.
“I never once thought anything would happen because of a computer.”
Every program we run is free. That's because of you.
Your gift equips another child to spot a predator, see through a scam, and know exactly what to do when a message turns dangerous. It keeps The Safety Hub free for every student, family, and school that needs it.
