What if there were a way that digital technology could help adolescents in the face of mental health crises? Center advisor Dr. Nick Allen, University of Oregon, one of the co-investigators in the MAPS (Mobile Assessment for the Prevention of Suicide) study, talked to Science magazine about how digital tech could help predict and prevent suicide.
A new article from the UCLA Newsroom highlights the CDA’s work, mission, and recent projects, including STEPS for Youth and the Adaptiviy podcast. “If the center fulfills its mission, we will see a greater investment — at the federal, systemic, and educational levels — in young people,” said Co-Executive Director, Adriana Galván.
Jennifer Pfeifer, Co-Director of the National Scientific Council on Adolescence (NSCA), and Leslie Leve, member of the NSCA, speak with Michael Dunne on KLCC, the Oregon NRP affiliate radio station, about how we can support young people feeling uncertain about the election. Pfiefer and Leve discuss the new NSCA note, “Elections as Opportunities for Positive Adolescent Development.”
