Digital Wellness as Community Care: A Family Conversation

Our phones sit on the dinner table. Our kids scroll before bed. Something in this relationship needs tending, and this session looks at it as a shared experience rather than a problem to fix.

We'll explore digital wellness as a two-way relationship between parents and children, with particular attention to how our habits shape both our attention and theirs. We'll draw on research from Common Sense Media, unpack how algorithms are designed and who they affect, and explore how digital spaces can build genuine belonging and connection. Along the way, we'll return to what brings families back together: shared play and real rest.
