Internet safety tips
Internet Safety Tips for Children and Teens From the New York Public Library:
Personal Information. Don’t give out personal information without your parents’ permission. This means you should not share your last name, home address, school name, or telephone number. 
Screen Name. When creating your screen name, do not include personal information like your last name or date of birth.
Passwords. Don’t share your password with anyone but your parents. 
Photos. Don’t post photos or videos online without getting your parents’ permission.
Online Friends. Don’t agree to meet an online friend unless you have your parents’ permission. 
Online Ads. Don’t buy anything online without talking to your parents first.
Downloading. Talk to your parents before you open an email attachment or download software. 
Bullying. Don’t send or respond to mean or insulting messages. Tell your parents if you receive one. If something happens online that makes you feel uncomfortable, talk to your parents or to a teacher.
Social Networking. Many social networking websites (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Second Life and MySpace) and blog hosting websites have minimum age requirements to signup. These are there to protect you.
​Research. Talk to your librarian, teacher, or parent about safe and accurate websites for research. 
For information on Internet safety and excellent resources to develop digital citizenship, you may like to check out the parent resources on Common Sense Media.
Physical health and mental wellbeing
Physical Health
The AOE and Department of Health have repeatedly provided the following suggestions and guidance:
 “Many of the precautions that help prevent other respiratory diseases, like colds and the flu, can also help keep an illness like COVID-19 from spreading:
  Frequent handwashing with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. (Don’t forget thumbs and in between your fingers.)
 Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
 Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
 Cover your cough or sneeze with your sleeve or a tissue. Throw the tissue in the trash.
 Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.
 Stay home when you are sick.”

Community-based victim advocacy centers want to ensure folks know that advocacy organizations are up and running, just remotely.  Victims of DV and sex crimes can rely on these resources. In addition to the county-based victim services agencies, there are numerous resources available for survivors at the local and national level. They include:
•             Vermont Network website: https://vtnetwork.org/covid-19-update.
•             Vermont Domestic Violence Hotline: 800-228-7395.
•             Vermont Sexual Violence Hotline: 800-489-7273.
•             National Domestic Violence Hotline: 800-799-7233.
