In our always-on digital world, it can be hard for tweens and teens – and adults! – to successfully navigate online and IRL (In Real Life) worlds. Ana’s work, which is grounded in research and based on over fifteen years of working with students of all ages, offers practical solutions for students, parents, and educators as they navigate the ever-changing issues involving social networking and healthy teen development. Ana will be presenting to our students on November 14. For more information and a presentation schedule, please click here.
