Crime Stoppers of Houston Check Presentation

On September 15, 2018, AAYGC members Sumer, Skylar, Brandon, Jeffery, Ethan, and Ashton awarded Crime Stoppers a $5,000 grant to support activities for Safe School Institute. Since its inception in 1997, the Safe School Institute has evolved into a FREE, year-round program that has educated over 1 million students in 30 Greater Houston Area school districts. Crime Stoppers facilitated training for AAYGC members and their moms on actual and potential online threats including tools predators use, cyber bullying, and digital reputation and revealing too much information online. AAYGC members are now student Ambassadors for Crime Stoppers of Houston Safe School Institute and will be able to educate other students to help prevent crime. Ashton says that the cyber safety training is cool and innovative. Kids will like it and benefit from it. Ethan says this will be a great program to have in their high school. Brandon enjoyed the training because in this smaller setting it was a lot more casual and unlike the big assemblies he has at school he could participate in the actual conversation. Congratulations Crime Stoppers of Houston!
