Protecting Our Children in a Digital World: A New Partnership in Raleigh County

Frank Priddy Safe Surfin'

At the Safe Surfin’ Foundation, our mission has always been clear and close to our hearts: to implement and continually support internet safety education globally for all children by providing training, technical assistance, and educational materials at no cost. Today, we’re excited to share an incredible step forward in that mission.

We’re proud to announce our new partnership with Sheriff Frank Priddy and the Raleigh County Sheriff’s Office. This collaboration marks a powerful union in the fight to keep children safe in the digital world. Sheriff Priddy recently met with our Regional Manager, Jim Hale, to begin this important work, and we’re thrilled to have the support of Chief Deputy Frankie Shelton as well.

Together, we are focused on preventing online predators before they strike, stopping the spread of hateful or illegal messages, and promoting the positive and safe use of technology. Every child deserves to explore the internet without fear—and with partners like the Raleigh County Sheriff’s Office, we’re making that possible.

To kick off this partnership, we are helping to host a free internet safety training class for law enforcement officers on May 16th. (The exact location in Raleigh County will be announced soon.) This course will empower our officers with the tools and knowledge they need to protect children in today’s ever-changing digital landscape.

If you’re a law enforcement officer interested in attending, please reach out to Sgt. B.J. Adkins at the Raleigh County Sheriff’s Office for details.

We’re honored to stand alongside our brothers and sisters in blue as we work toward a safer online world for our kids. One community at a time, we’re making a difference.
