How can we help with the mental health issues facing this generation of kids and teens? 

If you’re a parent, teacher, coach, or leader who works with kids, we’ve created this resource for you!

We’ll talk about how childhood is changing and the connection between technology and anxiety. We’ll offer practical ways parents and educators can help.
