Internet Safety

The Internet is an amazing tool but it can also be scary, especially where children are concerned. These days, predators don't need a crowbar to enter your home. In some cases, all they need is an innocent person at the other end of a family computer.

The Boulder Police Department wants to help make this technology safe. Posted here are a variety of resources, some created by the police department and others from trusted outside organizations.

Brochures and documents:

 BPD Internet Safety Tips
