Join Professor Nevin Harper and Dr. Will Dobud as they discuss the findings from their recent Kids These Days project. The Kids These Days book, scheduled for publication in 2025, was born from conversations with leading experts in all things related to youth mental health and the current mental health crisis occurring in our youth. While many have argued its caused by the phones, overprotection, or even bad therapy, this presentation zooms way out to discuss some of the wicked problems impacting youth, and what adults can do about it.
