The FBI's Community Outreach Program will sponsor activities for youth during the adult session, which will include learning about fingerprints, fitness, and fun games. The FBI will also provide Child ID cards, free of charge.
The presentations will cover topics such as social media, gaming, digital footprints, cyberbullying, extortion, and current trends criminals are using to target and manipulate kids.
