Training Overview

Yes, the Facebook whistleblower was talking about your students. Learn how to help them balance social media use.

Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen recently told Congress, “The choices being made inside of Facebook are disastrous for our children.” Highlighting a phenomenon that could be attributed to any social media platform today, her comments revealed the hold that these apps have over the lives of youth.
