Abstract
The goal of this Social Change Portfolio is to support the implementation of a school-based prevention program for high school students in San Jose, California, that promotes healthy technology use, strengthens peer and adult connections, and increases participation in face-to-face social activities. The proposed program seeks to increase adolescents' awareness of their social media use patterns while strengthening protective factors associated with positive youth development, including school connectedness, supportive peer relationships, trusted adult relationships, and meaningful social engagement.
