2 Hour Webinar - Supporting Student Mental Health in a Digital World

November 2nd, 2020

Supporting Student Mental Health in a Digital World

Speaker: Adrienne Principe

Time: 10am-12pm

Description: We are living during a time in which adolescents are more depressed and more anxious, and more likely to be hospitalized for self-harm and suicide. Research shows at least a link between this mental health crisis and social media use, especially for girls. This webinar will provide educators with strategies that can be implemented today to help students connect and build resilience, both of which support student mental health.
