The Healthy Framework Center for Digital Safety
Advancing safety, standards, and accountability online
Founded in 2017, The Healthy Framework Center for Digital Safety is dedicated to advancing internet and mobile app safety through standards-based guidance, education, and responsible digital practices. Our work focuses on helping individuals, families, and organizations navigate the realities of modern technology with clarity, confidence, and accountability.
We bring together experience from technology, education, and digital risk management to develop practical frameworks and resources that address real-world online challenges. Rather than reacting to trends or fear-based headlines, we prioritize evidence-based approaches that promote long-term digital well-being.
The Healthy Framework Center for Digital Safety exists to create structure where uncertainty often exists. As the internet continues to evolve, we provide the guidance, resources, and frameworks needed to support safer and healthier online environments for the people and communities that rely on them.
Our Mission
The Healthy Framework Center for Digital Safety is a values-driven organization focused on helping to make the internet more accessible for everyone by providing the information and tools needed for a safer experience.
Through research, resource creation, the connecting of key industry leaders, and lobbying for real change, the Healthy Framework Center for Digital Safety leads the charge toward a brighter and safer internet of today and tomorrow.
It is our core belief that everyone should be able to use the internet and mobile applications safely, without fear of exploitation, harassment, or harm.
Our Core Values
Transparency
We believe people deserve to understand how platforms, data, and systems affect them. Clear information builds trust and informed decisions.
Education Over Fear
We believe in empowering people with knowledge, not scaring them into compliance. Awareness should build confidence, not anxiety.
Accessibility
Safety tools and guidance should be understandable, practical, and available to everyone, regardless of age, background, or technical skill.
Adaptability
We adapt continuously as digital threats evolve, ensuring our guidance remains relevant, effective, and grounded in real-world risk.
Privacy
We believe privacy requires clear communication, honest disclosures, and meaningful choices rather than hidden policies or exploitation.
Clear Standards
We believe safety improves when standards are clearly defined, measurable, and consistently applied across digital platforms.
