Tennessee Symposium For Online Health And Safety | 2025
Tennessee Symposium on Online Health & Safety
January 27 | Lipscomb University | Nashville, TN
How do we protect a generation raised with social media?
That question drove every part of this event—and it’s why the Patton Foundation proudly backed it. This wasn’t just another panel. It was 650+ parents, teens, educators, and leaders coming together to confront the rising mental health crisis tied to screen time and digital addiction.
Key voices included:
Jason Frost, co-founder of Wired Human, breaking down the digital habits reshaping teen mental health.
Nicki Reisberg, counselor and host of Scrolling 2 Death, offering raw, practical insight on the toll of screen addiction.
Jonathan Haidt, via exclusive webinar access, deepening the conversation around The Anxious Generation.
Spencer Patton, founder of the Patton Foundation, offering a call to action.
This is what the Patton Foundation is about:
Creating space for real connection—between parents, teens, educators, and leaders.
Bringing communities together to talk openly, share stories, and face challenges side by side.
Sparking conversations that lead to local action and long-term change.
We’re building momentum—and events rooted in relationship.
