Save the Date! January 25th
Screen Sanity equips parents to be mentors and guides so kids grow up happy and healthy in an increasingly digital world. We offer a variety of tips, tools and trainings, all designed to help families maximize the benefits of technology while minimizing the harmful side effects. Join us in creating a world where kids are captivated by life, not screens.
We are offering a Parent Only Night on January 25th from 6:00-8:00 pm. IVE's counselor and school social worker will facilitate this session. More details to come!
