PRESS RELEASE (August 6, 2019) — The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children is launching “Into the Cloud,” a brand-new online-safety product for children in grades K-5. This includes an animated web series and video game. Using data from actual NCMEC CyberTipline reports, each episode focuses on a different element of online safety, from strategies for handling cyberbullying to recognizing and reporting unsafe/inappropriate interactions and content. Additional episodes will be available throughout the year.

“Into the Cloud” presents important safety information in an age-appropriate and entertaining manner. All the resources are free.

The first two episodes are available at www.missingkids.org/netsmartz/videos.
