2 Days. 2 Events. Countless Solutions.
Families Managing Media (FMM) is partnering with AHEC to announce the first-of-its-kind continuing education accredited event in Charlotte, NC. Five medical experts from around the country will convene in Charlotte, NC in May to discuss the current medical research on screen overuse in childhood and how we can prevent screen addiction. Medical professionals, teachers and parents are invited to come learn how to prevent digital addictions and reclaim children who have become addicted to video games or social media.
Thursday, May 16: Parent Preview Night
The conference is divided into two events. It begins Thursday, May 16 with a preview night featuring brief talks from three experts, followed by a question-and-answer session. This ticketed event, “Kids & Screens: Preventing Digital Addiction,” will provide a taste of the topics that will be explored in great depth during the all-day conference on Friday. The preview night will be at Pineville United Methodist Church in Pineville, NC, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m.
