CYBERBULLYING RESOURCES
Education Modules Addressing Sexual Exploitation, Technology and Bullying
The issue of cyberbullying is diverse and complex and our agency’s intersection has typically involved harm facing young people in conjunction with sexuality and technology, resulting in the onslaught of bullying behaviour.
Building on strategies in the Kids in the Know program and reports to Cybertip.ca, Canada’s tipline for reporting the online sexual exploitation of children, the education modules outlined below provide educators with lesson plans and tools to assist in teaching youth about safety in both an online and offline environment with respect to sexual exploitation, technology and bullying.

- Healthy Friendships

GRADE 9/10 EDUCATION MODULE
