Many children, parents, and educators lack the tools and guidance needed to recognize, prevent, or respond to online sextortion, and often struggle to identify warning signs or navigate conversations about online safety in supportive, trust-based ways. Our mission is to bridge this gap through accessible, peer-driven education on digital safety and online child exploitation.
Our workshops blend storytelling, real-life examples, and interactive discussion with practical education to teach middle and high school students, parents, and educators about online sextortion and child exploitation, including how to recognize warning signs, respond safely and communicate effectively, and access resources for support.
Cynthia Wang is a Bay Area high school student and the founder of Safe Link. In fifth grade, she was a victim of online child sextortion for several months, during which she struggled with fear, anxiety, and deep isolation. This experience shaped her perspective on online safety and the lack of accessible education around digital exploitation, specifically sextortion, for other youth and families.
