FACT slide with a light blue background and a large white paper-style text box. Blue heading reads “FACT”. Main text states that research does not support a mainly online model.

A source note cites the National Institute of Justice (2018). In the bottom right, orange handwritten text reads “WHY IT MATTERS” with an arrow.
WHY IT MATTERS slide with a light blue background and a large white paper-style text box. Orange handwritten heading at the top reads “WHY IT MATTERS”. Main text states that if prevention focuses too narrowly on platforms and content alone, key parts of the pathway may be missed. It adds that assessment needs to consider social embeddedness, life events, shifts in relationships, emerging intent, and opportunities for intervention, not only digital activity. Bottom right text reads “MORE CONTENT” with an arrow.
