WELCOME!

Captain Scott Frank

September 10th, 2025:

After nearly a decade on the road, the time has come to close an unforgettable chapter of the Digital Empowerment Project. Since 2017, it has been my greatest honor to travel the country, meeting tens of thousands of students, parents, educators, and counselors. Together, we have shared stories, built awareness, and strengthened families in their journey to navigate the digital world with wisdom and courage.

The live events of the Digital Empowerment Project will no longer continue, but the mission remains the same: to equip parents and young people with the tools and confidence they need to thrive online and in life. Though the stage lights dim, the message lives on through my online course, resources, and the countless conversations sparked in classrooms, gymnasiums, and auditoriums nationwide.

I am deeply grateful for every invitation, every handshake, every heartfelt question, and every commitment from parents and students to walk boldly into digital life with awareness and purpose. This has been more than a program—it has been a movement powered by people who care deeply about the next generation.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for allowing me to share this journey with you. While the live tours are ending, the Digital Empowerment Project will continue to serve and support families in new ways. The mission is not finished—it is simply evolving.

The Digital Empowerment for Parents online training course is available at https://dlc.digitalempowermentproject.com.

With gratitude and hope,
Scott Frank
Founder, Digital Empowerment Project

SCOTT WAS NOTHING LESS THAN INFORMATIVE, ENGAGING AND AMAZING.

Understanding and Empathetic

Captain Frank spoke candidly to our students and parents. He was informative, kind, tough, understanding, empathetic, and blunt all at the same time. He sparked conversations at home and at school that have changed our students. I HIGHLY recommend Capain Frank to come speak at your school!

Superhero!

It was an amazing seminar! My husband and I are pretty tech savvy but I still learned a lot! There was things I didn’t know and after listening about everything you talked about I feel like my eyes are more open. I feel like this seminar should be mandatory for all parents and kids. It was such an amazing,very well given and extremely Informative seminar. I appreciate and thank you for all that you do. A true superhero.

STRONGLY Recommend

Our school brought Captain Frank in to speak to our students and parents during separate sessions. Given today’s use of technology and social media by our kids, I STRONGLY recommend attending his parent presentation. He is incredibly impactful, has a wealth of experience, and provides insightful information that we can all use in our daily lives with our kids. Trust me, this is not a presentation you want to miss!

Every parent….

Every parent of any age child needs to attend this presentation. Scott says the hard things that we as parents need to hear in order to be better at parenting when it comes to technology. He gives it to you straight from his own experiences and of those he’s known over the years. It is evident that he is passionate about the well-being of children and families. If you are handing your child a device, you need educate yourself on it. His presentation is a great fist step. His information is current and relevant to today’s time.

Expected a lecture…..

I’m afraid our students expected a lecture on internet safety, however Scott’s approach engaged kids. After the presentation, a parent with two children shared that they “learned more than they thought they might… and they were both surprised at how ‘unsafe’ they may be.” This would be equally true for Scott’s presentation to parents and guardians. While there was a lot of information, he provided ways we can effectively work with our kids to empower them in their digital lives.
