Common Sense, the nation's leading nonprofit organization dedicated to helping kids thrive in a world of media and technology, recently announced a partnership with the Arizona Community Foundation, the Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust, and the Phoenix IDA on a statewide digital well-being initiative.
The effort, which will run out of the Getz Center for Collaborative Philanthropy in Phoenix, will spearhead three statewide initiatives:
- To raise awareness among the state's parents, teachers, and educators about the impact of media and technology on children and their developing minds.
- To build families and educators' knowledge, skills, and confidence in how to promote their children's digital well-being and guide them in using technology safely and responsibly.
- To empower Arizona's youth to use technology safely and responsibly.
"Providing children, specifically those in underserved areas, with access to technology remains a focus for us," said Phoenix IDA CEO Juan Salgado. "We've invested in Common Sense to ensure that children, parents, and educators can access tools that maximize the benefits of media and technology in a safe environment."
