Hey folks!
We missed July because of the Parent Peer Supporter Training - so worth it!!
But now we are back to business as usual and have our next Wednesday Wrap planned for Wednesday the 16th of August!
Our very special guest is Lauren from Quiip -
Lauren has spent years working with Online Communities including The Line, ReachOut (Youth) and Play Safe in addition to beyondblue and SANE. She is an expert in using social media safely and the risks associated with each platform. Whether you have an early teen who is just starting their social media career or an older teen who has been using them like a pro for years, info on how to use them safely is never wasted.
Learn how to search hashtags to know if your teens' party is 'trending' and how to disable geo-locators so your immediate whereabouts stay secret.
Join us, next week, for an hour at 8 PM AEST on the 16th of August - right here!!

Hey everyone! Welcome to the Wednesday Wrap tonight.
I'd like to kick off by thanking @LaurenPiro for being here tonight and sharing her incredible wisdom with us.
I'm going to give her a moment to say hello and introduce herself.

Hello! I'm looking forward to chatting with you all!
As @Ngaio-RO mentioned, I've been working with youth communities and social media for the past seven years and before that I was using them myself, so please do feel free to ask me any questions you may have.
It looks like you’re visiting us from a country other than Australia.
We are an Australian service and think you’d benefit more from looking up a similar service in your country.
You are welcome to look around the forums, but please don’t make an account or post, as we can’t offer you the help you may need.
Before you go ahead and post, you should know that we remove non-Australian accounts – not because we don’t want to help or connect with you, but because we may not be able to provide you with the service that you require.
