The Social Awakening
“Social Awakening” featuring Max Stossel (who was featured on the Netflix documentary The Social Dilemma)
Thursday February 2, 6:30-8:30
Harrisburg Academy will welcome award-winning artist Max Stossel, the founder of Social Awakening, an organization dedicated to helping young people survive and thrive in a modern world. He has been featured in the Netflix show The Social Dilemma, and will host a session for parents/guardians at 6:30 p.m. in the McCormick Auditorium about social media's impact on our lives and how to manage that impact among adolescents.
*I am so excited to welcome Max to our campus! He will be speaking with our students in the afternoon, our faculty right after school, and then we will have our parent session at 6:30. Are you wondering about Max’s background? He has ran social for multinational brands, and later worked for a social media company where he designed some of the same notification structures to distract people that he now criticizes. He has spent the past few years speaking with thousands of students, parents, and educators around the world, and creating resources to help manage social media’s impact on their lives. More information on the “Social Awakening” here.
