Episode 15: Voices From the Next Generation

We recently published a blog called "The Real Mental Health Crisis Behind Concerns From The Surgeon General". In that blog we explore the recommendations by Dr. Vivek Murthy surrounding social media and its effects on mental health. A majority of the Surgeon General's Advisory, which can be found on our website, focused on youth and particularly, on teenagers. The Center for RelationaLearning has decided it's time we all start asking those young people to join in the conversation about their own futures and mental health. Despite being commonly ignored, teens have a vast knowledge and experience with social media and the impact it has on their lives. Listen in as we get the work started, and finally speak to the group of people we are all trying to make decisions for on how they feel about social media, mental health, and the best ways we could all positively impact their future.
