Digital Well-Being for Kids with Chris McKenna

I am excited to welcome back a previous guest to the podcast today here to speak about a very important topic. He is the founder of Protect Young Eyes, an organization dedicated to creating safer digital spaces for kids. Protect Young Eyes also provides parents with resources to help navigate technology safely.

Chris McKenna is a man with never-ending energy when it comes to fighting for the safety and protection of children. Chris practices his internet safety tips on his four amazing children and is regularly featured on news, radio, and podcasts for his research. His 2019 US Senate Judiciary Committee testimony was the catalyst for draft legislation and ongoing discussion that could radically change online child protection laws and earned PYE the NCOSE Dignity Defense Alert Award in 2020. The PYE team has performed over 1,300 presentations at schools, churches, and nonprofits and was featured in the Childhood 2.0 movie. When not leading PYE, Chris is the Digital Marketing Manager for Covenant Eyes. Other loves include running, spreadsheets, nature, and candy.

All of the resources Chris and I discussed can be found at www.protectyoungeyes.com. You can also read the blog post about the WiFi router he recommends at www.protectyoungeyes.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-understanding-routers/. Be sure to follow them on Instagram @protectyoungeyes and Facebook @protectyoungeyes.
