Three Iredell County schools will be first to add Cyber Swat program.
Kids talk to kids, friends talk to friends.
That’s why the Iredell County Sheriff’s Office and Iredell-Statesville Schools will be the first to bring the Safe Surfin’ Foundation’s Cyber Swat program to North Carolina. They hope the program’s peer-to-peer approach is more effective in teaching kids how to protect themselves on the internet.

Bedford County Sheriff, wife prepare to launch Cyber SWAT in 8 different schools across US
BEDFORD, Va. – When Bedford County Sheriff Mike Brown and his wife Janet started Cyber SWAT, a program to promote internet safety for teenagers, they didn’t imagine it going global.
“Quite frankly, I was hoping. But did I see it coming as quick as it came? No,” Mike Brown said.
Nearly three years since it began, the Browns’ program is making an international impact.
The pair recently went to the Vatican to talk about Cyber SWAT.
And on Wednesday they met with another potential sponsor.
“This individual would like to see this program in Canada. He’s from Canada. But it is international,” Mike Brown said.
