FILTER is a digital well-being and online safety curriculum designed to empower young people to set boundaries, create good habits, and achieve healthier relationships with technology. Through smart phone and social media literacy training, we truly believe we can change the way these devices are impacting students, prevent problems before they start, and create a better world for this generation and generations to come. #FILTERFIRST

FILTER was created by sisters and co-founders Hallie House and Hannah George to combat the serious and harmful impacts we are seeing social media have on our young people. With 10 children between the two of them, ages 4 to 17, they found that although there are plenty of resources for parents on the dangers of unbridled smartphone and social media use on teens, there was little on the market that actually focused on educating the pre-teens and teens. Spurred on by this realization FILTER was born.
Hannah grew up in Little Rock, Arkansas and moved to Nashville, Tennessee to run track at Lipscomb University where she graduated with a Bachelors in Business Administration and a Masters in Accounting. As a CPA, she has worked in public accounting, health care, and the professional sports industry, but found her passion in the non-profit world working for United Way of Metro Nashville. While taking time away from work to care for her family, she saw a huge need for education and awareness centered around smartphones and social media and set out on this journey to help people develop healthier relationships with technology and to never forget that they are more than they are online. Her and her husband, Jeremy, currently live in the suburbs of Nashville with their six children.
