April 28, 2023 - 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM ET
Technology and social media shape the identities and world views of today's teens. Adolescent sexuality and relationships are interwoven with cell phones and social media.

This workshop will start from the ground up, beginning with definitions and a roadmap of technology commonly used by young people. From there, we will examine how technology influences teen sexuality and relationships -- for better or for worse. We will discuss teen relationship abuse and technology, as well as the way teen relationships and identity can be strengthened by technology. Finally, the class will focus on how to work with and relate to teens through the lens of technology.
