Our local communities are joining together to address rising mental health concerns among our youth. Haddam-Killingworth, Madison, and Guilford Youth Services have been collaborating with local community groups on the impact of devices, increased technology, and social media on our kids’ mental health and well-being. Joining together to learn and create change is critical right now.Join us for a night out to learn more about the impact of social media on our kids’ mental health. Can’t Look Away is a gripping documentary that exposes the dark side of social media and its devastating impact on young users. Directors Matthew O’Neill and Perri Peltz take viewers inside the high-stakes legal battle to hold tech companies accountable for the harm caused by their negligence and dangerous algorithms. Based on investigative reporting by Bloomberg News’ Olivia Carville, the film follows the Social Media Victims Law Center fighting for justice for families whose children suffered tragic consequences linked to social media use. As families seek justice, Can’t Look Away underscores the urgent need for industry reform and serves as both a wake-up call about the dangers of social media– and a call to action to protect future generations.
Following the film will be a 30–45-minute panel conversation with Claudia Califano, MD- child psychiatrist and professor at the Yale Child Study Center, as well as other local leaders.
