Internet Safety for Parents

Fishers PD has complied a list of resources for parents to use to help keep their family safe on-line. These are simply recommendations that we have been made aware of. Some of this information is free and some may have a cost. FPD has no relationship with any of these organizations. If there is a resource that you like that we should consider adding to this list, please contact us at fisherspd@fishers.in.us.  Click on logos below to follow link.
