Our Mission
The Balance Project: Wethersfield aims to find and maintain a healthy balance of real-world experiences and technology usage for our children, our schools and our community, through collective action. We are grounded in the four “new norms” established in the book, The Anxious Generation: - No smartphones before high school - No social media before 16 - Phone-free schools - More independence, free play and responsibility in the real world.
