Invite to Call on Reclaiming our Children in COVID-19

I pray you and your family are healthy?

As I write this, COVID-19 has claimed over 54,000 lives in our nation. Below, is a snapshot of how this pandemic is impacting cybersecurity and STEM education:
Public School Closures: 41 states, 3 U.S. territories, and the District of Columbia (school building closures for rest of academic year),

Public and Private school students facing distance learning or cancelled classes: 55.1 million

Cybersecurity attacks during COVID: Huge spike, 500% increase on attacks of World Health Organization, hospitals, even COVID relief payments to small businesses.

To help you and the students in this new environment, we invite you to join a national conversation with parents, educators, and government leaders. Together, we can reclaim our children and their education so we all survive and even thrive during this crisis. Find more details below.
