Online Child Exploitation
Prevention Initiative
Initiative Vision
Establish a technology safety partnership with an ongoing goal of working collaboratively to achieve a consistent and effective global prevention message.
INITIATIVE-DEVELOPED RESOURCES
The training programs delivered by the ICAC training providers are essential in providing the federal, state and local agencies that make up the ICAC Task Force Program, the tools and techniques necessary to develop an effective response to technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation and internet crimes against children.
PREVENTION BEST PRACTICES (Coming Soon!)
The Online Child Exploitation Prevention Initiative (OCEPI) has created Ten Best Practices for Prevention Programs, an easy guide to optimize the effectiveness of online safety engagement efforts by providing a quick reference guide that outlines evidence-based techniques, created for any front-line professional working with children and families to help ensure a child’s safety online. The goal of this Best Practices document is to share what researchers know about prevention with those who do the work, with an aim to provide consistent messaging which supports effective prevention and victim response.
What can you do?
Review these practices with your team and assess your current program and prevention materials.
- Where does your program align?
- Where can updates be made?
Work with partners to organize a collaborative approach by connecting local law enforcement, social workers, mental health professionals, school and district leaders, parent council leaders, student leaders, and other partner organizations.
