District 4 School Board Member Kelly Barrera will also be present.
Deputies from the sheriff’s office will then conduct a few presentations regarding laws that affect children, with specific topics including the consequences of texting and social media, as well as Internet safety for parents. Representatives from numerous nonprofit organizations, including EPIC Behavioral Healthcare, PACT Prevention Coalition, Tobacco Free Florida and many others, will also be on hand to answer questions and provide information on the resources they provide to the community.
