Maryland Internet Safety 101 Program

The OJJDP FY 10 Earmarks Program furthers the Department's mission by providing grants, cooperative agreements, and other assistance authorized by the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974, as amended, to organizations identified in the Conference Report to accompany the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2010 (P.L. 111-117), H.R. Conf. Rep. No. 111-366 at 702-714.

The Maryland Internet Safety 101 program will reduce Internet-initiated crime against youth by educating and equipping parents and other adults in Maryland to better protect children from predators and other forms of online exploitation by replicating Enough Is Enough's (EIE) Virginia Internet Safety 101: Empowering Parents Program. Performance measures for this program will include an increase in parents and other adults trained to prevent Internet-initiated crime against children.
