    Exploring the Impact of Social Media and Phone Use on Childhood Development and Mental Wellness

    Drawing from Dr. Kara Alaimo's book "Over the Influence," we will discuss strategies for schools to establish healthy tech policies.  Our summit opens with remarks and a data review by Zach Rausch, N.Y.U. Stern's Associate Research Scientist and lead researcher for Jonathan Haidt's N.Y.T. best-selling novel "The Anxious Generation".  Featuring a panel of experts, this event aims to educate all for us on social media risks and advocates for a return to play-based childhood.  Join us for insights and action!  PARENTS ARE STRONGLY ENCOURAGED TO REGISTER ALSO!

  • The Mental Health Consortium offers 10+ collegial work groups/circles that meet virtually monthly, including, elementary counselor circle, school psychologist collaborative clinical discussion group, BCBA circle, LGTBQ+ learning group, crisis team roundtable exercises and more.  These groups are offered to school district staff for NO COST.  These groups are moderated by experts in their fields. The district MHC membership covers the cost of these groups.

    The MHC schedule includes monthly workshops, updates, presentations, and trainings. These sessions, often available virtually, connect participating districts with experts and cover diverse topics such as mental and behavioral health, clinical updates, new research, and NYSED information dissemination. Additionally, annual training initiatives are offered in a cohort format, enabling district teams to receive training on evidence-based programs.
