Carrie describes Digital Respons-Ability as a low tech, tech company and is a state-sponsored provider including working Internet Come Against Children Taskforce, across the state of the Utah. Going back to basics is the focus when it comes reaching out to kids. Carrie takes a non-lecturing approach with the position of understanding the why behind negative online behaviour in kids.
Carrie also looks at the culture lens when handling communications online. Adding Spanish services for her area of focus showed how different language and culture matters in how kids and parents express themselves offline/online. Carrie coaches kids of all background including juveniles in detection centres and helping them re-build their online identity in a positive way.
