Anxious Generation Book Study

Kids today are facing more stress than ever, from academic pressures to the pull of social media and screens. Anxiety is on the rise, and many parents are looking for ways to support their child’s mental well-being.

Join us for a FREE book study on the #1 bestseller The Anxious Generation. We’ll explore how modern childhood has changed and what we can do to help kids and teens build confidence, resilience, and real-world connections. Together, we’ll unpack the societal shifts behind skyrocketing anxiety and depression in Gen Z, discuss the impact of smartphones and social media, and explore practical strategies for fostering resilience.

Whether you're a parent, educator, or simply passionate about mental health, this study offers insights and actionable solutions to support the next generation.
