WELCOME TO A DREAM COME TRUE

Together we can make screen-free sleep the seat belt of our time. As tech use has soared, our youth have faced a growing sleep deprivation crisis. Fewer children are getting the recommended 9 to 12 hours of sleep. Over half of teens get less than 7 of their recommended 8 to 10 hours of sleep.

This is linked to reduced attention spans, lower academic performance, and increased anxiety and depression. Research shows just having a screen in the bedroom negatively effects the quality and

quantity of sleep. Despite this, 82% of teens currently sleep with phones in their room.

The Screen-Free Sleep Movement is addressing this critical and solvable issue. By reaching parents of elementary and middle school children, we can help make screen-free sleep the norm, setting healthy habits that last into the teen years and beyond. Because sleep advantages are life advantages.

For more information go to Screen Free Sleep.org

and see attached information.
