Do you know the impact of screen time and social media? Dr. Christy Kane does. Wonder what the #1 bullying statement is circulating on social media right now? Watch her presentation to find out.

Teens spend up to 12.6 hours a day on screens
Can lead to: increased violence and risk-taking behaviors, substance abuse, negative stereotyping

Dr. Kane is a coveted advisor in the area of mental health and has over 20 years of experience leading the Mental Health Clinic. She focuses her work on neurology, mental health stability, and how electronics are affecting the human brain. She spoke at SSHS a few weeks ago, and unfortunately had a small turnout. If you missed it, you missed out. Watch her presentation here on YouTube and learn steps you can take to prevent mental health crises. It's only available until Nov. 21st. Don't miss it this time!
