Defend Young Minds

Formerly Protect Young Minds. Founded by Kristen A. Jenson, author of the best-selling Good Pictures Bad Pictures series of books and Executive Producer of the Brain Defense: Digital Safety curriculum.

Our Defend Young Minds Vision: “We envision a world where caring adults empower young children with the information, skills and mindsets they need to defend themselves against pornography and reject all forms of sexual exploitation. In this way kids can grow up unburdened by addiction and objectification to enjoy healthy relationships and successful lives.

Our Defend Young Minds mission: We educate, encourage and equip parents, professionals and community leaders to defend young minds from the harms of pornography. We are devoted to developing excellent tools, including books, curriculum, articles, guides, courses and communities, to help raise empowered, resilient, screen-smart kids.
