ASACP on Cybernet Expo Panel

Los Angeles - (May 24, 2005) - The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP.org) is scheduled to be on the "Hot Issues and Problems in the Adult Internet" seminar on Tuesday, June 14th at 1:45 P.M at the Cybernet Expo (http://www.cybernetexpo.com) event in San Diego.

"Much has changed at ASACP in the last year. Its name is now the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection and it has obtained its non-profit status. We launched a re-designed site (http://www.asacp.org), developed new technology and incorporated new Best Practices. Being a panelist at Cybernet Expo will be a great opportunity to discuss the very important issue of child protection on the Internet with a very targeted and concerned group of Webmasters. In addition, given that Cybernet Expo provides a spectacular venue for quality networking, I feel that the event will be a great vehicle for ASACP and other companies looking to make the industry a better place to do business in," states Joan Irvine, Executive Director, ASACP.

Cybernet Expo Director and Co-organizer Jay Kopita adds, "The "Hot Issues" seminar was a real crowd pleaser last year with plenty of important topics discussed during its one hour run. This year I am thrilled to add Joan Irvine to the list of esteemed speakers who are willing to tackle the important issues and discuss possible solutions in our growing and ever-changing industry."
