Raising Digitally Responsible Youth

Sex�ng has several dangers to acknowledge regarding how it can permanently impact the lives of our youth. One of the most dangerous scenarios that we see occur repeatedly, especially in teenagers, is sextor�on. Sextor�on is when non - physical forms of coercion are used to extort non - consensual sexual favors from the vic�m. Sextor�on can happen to anyone who chooses to sext – it’s not always a stranger you’ve never met; it can also be someone close to you. It is crucial for our youth to understand that when they choose to engage in sex�ng, they are subjec�ng themselves to sextor�on.
