Let's TALK: Social Media and Mental Health

Join WTML and TALK for an engaging discussion about the impact of social media on mental health. Unlike a lecture or presentation, everyone will be encouraged to join the conversation. Together, we'll explore questions like: How does social media influence our well-being? Should youth have special protections in this digital age? And how can we balance those protections with free speech and privacy rights? This is a chance to share perspectives, learn from others, and consider solutions to one of today’s most pressing issues.
