Online Safety for the Whole Family
About Us
It Techs A Village was born from a simple observation: families are feeling overwhelmed and under-supported. While there are dozens of voices in the online safety space (and we like many of them!) very few offer practical solutions that can help your family with the challenges you're facing now. We believe that digital safety is a community (aka village) issue and we need to support each other to ensure that everyone thrives and has confidence. More, we want to promote a healthy balance of tech in our lives
and encourage more in-real-life experiences.
We’re two moms and professionals who are responding to the need we are hearing over and over again from families across the country.
