The MVLA Parent Education Speaker Series
Please join us for two screenings of LIKE - an IndieFlix Original Film
Tuesday, April 30, 2019 | 6:00pm and 7:30pm | LAHS Eagle Theater |201 Almond Ave., Los Altos, CA
LIKE explores the impact of social media on our lives. Technology is a tool. It’s here to stay and social platforms are a place to connect, share and care, but what’s really happening? Are we addicted? How do we stop? Where do we start? What do we need to know?
By understanding the effects of technology and social media on the brain, on our lives, and on our civilization, we can learn how to navigate it more safely together. The goal of this film is to inspire people of all ages, especially kids, to self regulate their use of technology. It’s about looking in the mirror and empowering ourselves to create balance in our lives and to learn to be there for each other.
Released this past fall, LIKE is a follow-up to Angst: Raising Awareness Around Anxiety, an IndieFlix film about teen anxiety, which was screened in January 2019 in partnership with the MVLA Unified High School District, Los Altos School District, and Mountain View Whisman School District.
Angst shines a spotlight on the alarming rise in teen anxiety and associative mental health issues for the very treatable condition that impacts 54 percent of females and 46 percent of males, with age seven being the median age of onset.
Following each screening, CHAC therapists will be available to share resources and to answer individual and small group questions.
Register for this free event at https://mvla2018-19-like.
Spanish translation will be available. Please indicate on Eventbrite when registering.
Sponsored by Los Altos Educational Foundation (LAEF), MVLA High School Foundation, Mountain View Educational Foundation (MVEF), and Los Altos-Mountain View PTA Council.
