Safe2Say Something
Safe2Say Something is a youth violence prevention program run by the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General. The program teaches youth and adults how to recognize warning signs and signals, especially within social media, from individuals who may be a threat to themselves or others and to “say something” BEFORE it is too late.

Discounted Internet for Qualified Households
The Emergency Broadband Benefit Program is a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) program that provides a temporary discount on monthly broadband bills for qualifying low-income households. If your household is eligible, you can receive:
- Up to a $50/month discount on your broadband service and associated equipment rentals
- Up to a $75/month discount if your household is on qualifying Tribal lands
- A one-time discount of up to $100 for a laptop, tablet, or desktop computer (with a co-payment of more than $10 but less than $50)
Only one monthly service discount and one device discount is allowed per household. To receive the connected device discount, consumers need to enroll in the EBB Program with a participating provider that offers connected devices (not all service providers offer device discounts). The service provider will provide the discount to the consumer.
Parental Social Media Awareness
Center for Parenting Education
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if kids came with an instruction manual. In today’s world, roles in the family are different and challenges such as technology and financial necessities can cause confusion and crisis. There is no “one size fits all” solution to how we should approach relationships with our kids. In an attempt to provide some suggestions and clarity to parents, we have added a link to the Center for Parenting Education, an organization dedicated to helping parents do their best for their families. Mount Carmel Area School District does not monitor or make any guarantees about the effectiveness or correctness of the content of this site, but we do think it has many good resources that will help parents at all levels.
