Be Happy

Don’t we all want to be happy?  curaJOY is all about joy, and long-lasting happiness, and we are a non-profit formed to build and support children’s inner strengths—emotional fitness—in fun yet effective ways so they experience and fulfill their maximum potential.  To make sure curaJOY’s community is a happy, safe and supportive place, we have a few simple guidelines that all participants should follow.  If you see any violations of our community policy, please contact us right away.

No hidden agendas – curaJOY is about emotional wellness and personal growth.  It’s a positive and uplifting community.  There’s enough chaos, fighting, and other stressors in the world.  Please leave your political, religious, or other non-related agendas when you’re here.  Posts intending to sell, spam, and mislead will be removed.

You won’t find curaJOY serving any advertisement to you from Google, Amazon, or any other sources in our community.  We don’t sell or trade your personal information either.

Be Safe – curaJOY makes every effort to moderate its online community but asks members to still employ the best online safety practices.  Don’t share identifying personal details! (i.e phone numbers, emails, address, birthday, etc.)

Common Sense Media is another non-profit educational organization with an online safety course you can review with your parent here.
