Why Are Kids Anxious? — A Community Exchange

Why Are Kids Anxious? — A Community Exchange

A Community Exchange from the Oregon Education Project

"Why Are Kids Anxious?"

Why are so many children and teens struggling with depression and other mental health challenges today?

Are schools contributing to the problems by focusing so much on a student’s social and emotional life?

Should teachers become classroom therapists — a role they are not trained or rewarded for?

And why does Oregon’s required Transformative Social and Emotional Learning Framework and Standards
promote “decentering white middle class values?”

Join us at the Medford Library for an information-rich exchange about how we rebuild Oregon K–12 Education to succeed.

Thursday, October 8 at 7:00pm
Medford Library
