Adolescents are in a mental health crisis. Schools and education departments can take the lead in setting new norms that will roll back the phone-based childhood and restore more free play and independence. In this edWebinar, social psychologist Dr. Jonathan Haidt will walk educators through the research on our urgent youth mental health crisis, present four norms for collective action, and outline what schools can do now to improve mental health for kids and teens. Attendees should consider what questions they have for Dr. Jonathan Haidt about the role of schools in dealing with social media, phones, and adolescent mental health issues. 

This edWebinar will be of interest to K-12 teachers, librarians, school leaders, district leaders, education technology leaders, and school counselors and psychologists. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
