Youth Screen Dependence & Digital Health
In our increasingly digital age, screen dependence is becoming a growing concern. Compass Health Center invites you to join us for a free 1.5 CE credits webinar, designed to provide crucial insights into this modern-day issue with our under 18 population. This comprehensive session will delve into key signs that indicate problematic screen use, explore why screens are so captivating, and offer practical strategies to help individuals and their families cultivate a healthier screen use approach.
