Fireside Chat: Moving Towards a Phone-Free Childhood!

Feb 16, 2025, 12 to 1 PM

Dress warmly and join us for a FIRESIDE CHAT: Shifting away from the phone-based childhood!
New Village Farm, Sunday Feb 16th - 12:00- 1:00pm
Kids Welcome! Hot chocolate and hot cider provided!

Special places like New Village Farm (700 Harbor Rd, Shelburne, VT) promote connection, belonging, healthy risk taking, independence and agency in our children & teens - which is exactly the 4th norm in Jon Haidt's book The Anxious Generation!

Fireside Chat Guests will include: Representative Angela Arsenault and local pediatricians sharing ways to provide kids and teens the human connection and challenging opportunities they need.
We will also share information about supporting healthy schools with phone & social media free school legislation as well as updates on the Warning Labels on Social Media products legislation at the Federal level.

If you cannot join but would still like to engage in this effort we'll get in touch with you if you sign up with the community support letter here! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe-syTEaVtoRgdYAanffUS6UADCS2wX03UiG0sC72SqZb4qGg/viewform

Please join and share widely!

RSVP for the Fireside Chat appreciated
