This week in Toronto, Snap Inc. brought together influential voices in online safety, parenting, mental health, and psychology for a conversation about how parents and caregivers can effectively navigate conversations with teens about online and digital wellbeing.


The conversation was moderated by Canadian television personality and host of 'The Health Tech-Up,' Lisa Chang, and panelists included Snap’s Global Head of Platform Safety, Jacqueline Beauchere, President and CEO of Kids Help Phone, Katherine (Kathy) Hay ICD.D, and Dr. Jennifer Laffier, PhD, Licensed Psychotherapist and Director of the Mental Health in the Digital Age Lab.

 

Let's keep the conversation going!





The Mental Health in the Digital Age Lab team is based across Turtle Island, the traditional lands of many diverse Indigenous Nations and Peoples. We acknowledge and express deep gratitude to the Indigenous Peoples who have cared for and continue to protect the lands, waters and resources on which we live, work, and learn. As a team committed to well-being, equity, and community flourishing, we are dedicated to ongoing learning, unlearning, respect, and action in support of truth and reconciliation. We encourage everyone engaging with our work to learn about the Indigenous territories they are on and consider how they can support Indigenous communities. Click here to learn more.
