IROC2 Receives Award from the National School Safety Advocacy Council

Richard Guerry and The Institute honored in recognition of their tireless efforts to communicate a Digital Consciousness™ to youth across the nation. This nonprofit was nominated by an editor of several respected and prestigious school safety publications who states,

"I spend hours researching worthwhile programs to recommend to my readers. I attend conferences, such as the annual School Safety Advocacy Council, to find the very best of the best - to help school administrators keep students safe. And IROC2 is one of the most pro-active programs I've found. I've personally had two readers contact me to say thanks for the referral and tell me that IROC2 helped reduce problems, especially reducing in-school fights caused by online arguments. The IROC2 Web site has more positive feedback from school administrators. Digital technology is a major part of students' lives, so they must learn to use it responsibly - before making a life-altering mistake. Clearly, considering all of the sexting, cyberbullying and suicide headlines, students need this education. IROC2 fills that need. I cannot think of another individual or organization that I could possibly recommend for the School Safety Advocacy Council's Exemplary School Safety Initiative Award over Richard Guerry and The Institute for Responsible Online and Cell-Phone Communication (IROC2)."
