25 years ago, NetSmartz Workshop was launched as a program of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and Boys & Girls Club of America. With a $1.5 million donation from computer maker Compag, @bgca_clubs distributed the original NetSmartz program to almost 3,000 Boys & Girls Clubs nationwide!
Today, NetSmartz and Into the Cloud™ is NCMEC’s flagship online safety product for children ages 11 and under, providing age-appropriate videos and activities to help teach children be safer online. ncmec.org/netsmartz

In 2005, Clicky flew to Los Angeles to film a music video with @alysonstoner! Together, they taught children that UYN means Use Your NetSmartz. Fast forward to 2026, prevention education and protecting children online is more important than ever. Help us celebrate 25 years of @netsmartz by sharing your favorite memories below!

Quick check-in for parents and caregivers:
Has your child become anxious when receiving texts or notifications?
Are they avoiding conversations about what they're doing online?
These can be signs that something isn't right.
