Supporting Teen Wellbeing in a Tech-Filled World: A Conversation with the U.S. Surgeon General

With the growing concern about social media's impact on teen mental health, what can we do to support the teens in our lives? Join us as we launch HGSE’s new Center for Digital Thriving by welcoming the U.S. Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy, to the Askwith Education Forum. Our conversation will go beyond the headlines about teen mental health to discuss the Surgeon General’s recent advisory on social media, share stories of how youth really engage with the technologies that surround them, and explore practical strategies for supporting digital wellbeing. We’ll discover how educators and families have the power to help youth navigate - and thrive - in today’s tech-filled world.
