This one-hour webinar explores the ways in which people who use violence use young people’s technology as a part of domestic and family violence, and practical ways frontline workers and advocates can support their clients to respond to this risk. This webinar will explore topics such as the social media age restriction ban, parental monitoring applications, cloud management, location tracking and information monitoring.
Please direct all questions to the organiser.
