About this Event
Chronically Online: Understanding and Supporting Youth in Today’s Digital Age
Content Warning: Discussions of youth accessing pornography & other adult content
When young people don’t see the need to access the internet carefully, they may experience harm or exploitation with lasting negative impacts. Presenters will discuss what youth are currently using to connect online, the impact of youth accessing pornography, and share tangible tips on supporting youth by engaging in open conversations about safe social media use and equip them with critical thinking skills to safely navigate the digital landscape.
Many adults, whether parents, caregivers or youth service professionals, struggle to understand how youth are currently accessing the internet and what that can all encompass. Every adult can benefit from learning more about what youth are doing online and how we can support them in making safer and healthier decisions in their online interactions.
