Growing societal dysfunction among youth is common knowledge among those working with children and families. Suicide, addictive behavior, overdose deaths, depression, violence, eroded learning ability, and anxiety have increased substantially. The Pandemic intensified these issues, but the upward trend was already in motion before COVID19. So what is causing all this and why?

There is no single answer, but emerging research suggests that excessive screen time (technology overuse) can have a similar impact on youth as childhood trauma. It can affect the developing brain, disrupt learning, impulse control, and more. So how do you know if you see trauma or technology overuse?

​

Join us as we explore findings from over 18 sources that suggest technology may have unintended consequences that can mimic trauma outcomes.

Attendees can expect to learn about:

1. The impact of technology on the developing brain.

2. Technology and learning.

3. Effect of technology overuse on children.

4. Technology addiction and the impact on youth.

5. Similarities between trauma and technology overuse.
