About Us
OUR MISSION HEADSUP RIVERTOWNS IS A COMMITTEE CREATED TO BRING AWARENESS, EDUCATION, SUPPORT AND ADVOCACY TO ENCOURAGE A SCREEN SMART COMMUNITY IN THE CURRENT AND CHANGING AGE OF TECHNOLOGY. AAWARENESS- WE WILL BEGIN COMMUNITY CONVERSATIONS AND SPONSOR ACTIVITIES DURING WHICH WE THINK CRITICALLY ABOUT THE EFFECTS OF SMARTPHONES, SOCIAL MEDIA AND GAMING ON OUR CHILDREN AND ON OURSELVES. EDUCATION-WE WILL PROVIDE INFORMATION ABOUT THE EFFECTS OF SCREENS ON CHILDREN SO FAMILIES CAN MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS ABOUT HOW AND WHEN TO INTRODUCE DIFFERENT TYPES OF TECHNOLOGY. SUPPORT- WE WILL PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR FAMILIES WHO WANT TO HOLD OFF ON VARIOUS TECHNOLOGIES FOR THEIR CHILDREN, AND WE WILL PROVIDE INFORMATION ON SMARTPHONE ALTERNATIVES. ADVOCACY - WE WILL ADVOCATE FOR POLICIES FOR SCREEN USE BOTH AT HOME AND AT SCHOOL, AND WE WILL USE RESEARCH TO SUPPORT THOSE POLICIES.
