Digital Safety Tips

Digital Safety Tips for Youth and Young Adults with Disabilities

A PAVE resource - www.wapave.org  



Social media has both benefits and disadvantages. To use social media safely and effectively, it’s important to practice digital safety and self-awareness. This guide teaches tips and tools to help you make smart choices and stay in control online.


Here are just a few of the many topics covered in this guide:

  • Social media helps people with disabilities connect, express themselves, and find support—but it also comes with risks that users need to understand.

  • A trusted adult is someone you know in real life who cares about your safety and can help you make good choices.

  • Not everyone online is who they say they are.
