Countywide Parent Ed Event (virtual): Reeling in Social Media Use. What Parents Need to Know.

We hope you will join us for this collaboration between Marin County Office of Education (MCOE) and ScreenSense:

Pre-Registration required here.

Explore the latest research on how social media is impacting today’s youth, including effects on mental health, self-esteem, and development. We’ll take a closer look at popular platforms like Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Discord, and go over what to know if your child is already using them.

Attendees will learn:

  1. Key risks to watch for

  2. How to have ongoing, meaningful conversations and check-ins

  3. Practical strategies to reel in social media use, set healthier boundaries, and reduce potential harm

  4. How parents can work together to ease peer pressure and create supportive norms around healthy tech use

Spanish interpretation available upon request (with 3+ days notice).

Pre-Registration required here.
