Today SCI Deputy Director Philip Gordon will be presenting at the America's Service Commissions national training event! Great opportunity to showcase the cutting-edge work the SCI #AmeriCorps staff team has been doing to "Cultivate Community Through Intentional Program Design". #nonprofit
The findings of this @commonsensemedia.bsky.social study on "Teen Grind Culture" match what we hear in the youth #mentalhealth work we do at @socialcapitalinc.org. e.g. the sources of pressure for teens, and how social media exacerbates it.
