Screenagers Under the Influence: Addressing Vaping, Drugs, and Alcohol in the Digital Age

A Film Screening and Conversation for Parents/Caregivers and their Teens with Strategies and Practical Solutions.

Join us for a screening of Screenagers Under The Influence: Addressing Vaping, Drugs, and Alcohol in the Digital Age that addresses the tech revolution and how it is effecting our teens. The screening wil be followed by a Q & A with local school counselors, and treatment and recovery organizations to discuss the film and what we can do locally and as parents/caregivers.


Screenagers Under The Influence: Addressing Vaping, Drugs, and Alcohol in the Digital Age delves into how the tech revolution has reshaped adolescence and its effects on substance use. The film debunks myths and depicts strategies parents and schools can use to encourage healthy decision-making, support teen mental health, set limits, and create healthy home environments.


Screenagers Under The Influence fills a pressing need for a film that explores more common scenarios. The film is grounded in teens’ current reality of being flooded by images on social media, movies, and TV shows about vaping, drugs, and alcohol.  Screenagers Under The Influence focuses on practical solutions for keeping our teens safe in a changing world.

Parents are highly encouraged to bring their teens!
