Rural Digital Youth Resiliency Project
Our mission is to investigate the risks that rural community members and rural young people face online, document social costs, and build resources for solutions and interventions to digitally-mediated harms. We convene a collaborative community of practice across technology, faith, journalism, academic, public health, veteran, and civil society organizations and work directly with affected communities to address and develop ground-level solutions and resources.
