On Monday, November 18th, dozens of parents, teachers, and mental health professionals gathered to take the next step in freeing our Anxious Generation. Through the use of three thought-provoking questions, small groups collaborated on ways each of us can: help kids, teens, and families step back from constant screen time; foster independence and resilience in our kids; and involve community stakeholders in creating a positive impact for the next generation.
Read the How-To Guide: 4 Actionable Ideas for Freeing the Anxious Generation created out of this night of vibrant conversation! Use it to start making intentional changes about your kids’ smartphone and technology use at home and in our community. Join us in helping to make these changes that are so necessary for our own and our kids’ emotional well-being.
