The Technology and Adolescent Mental Wellness program (TAM) is a community of stakeholders interested in generating novel responses to the following foundational question: How can technology support adolescent mental wellness?
The virtual 2023 TAM Colloquium was successfully held on Thursday, January 12th.
This meeting was a one-day, virtual event that consists of 4 main time segments: (1) a TAM Data Consortium portion to learn about data that the TAM program has available and how TAM members have used it, (2) an expert panel moderated by the founder of Center for Scholars and Storytellers, Dr. Yalda T. Uhls, (3) a YAB Initiative portion to learn about successes and challenges from newly created YABs (funded through a TAM 2021 initiative), and (4) a general interest section including our TAM Youth Advisory Board panel.
We look forward to seeing you again at TAM Colloquium 2024!
