Brett Lee founded Internet Safe Education in 2008 after working as a Child Exploitation detective for 16 years. The goals of ISE are to educate children so they can stay safe online; to enable children to use the internet in a healthy way and thrive online; and to educate teachers, parents, and caregivers so they can support children online. See Internet Safe Education. More info to come.
