6 Strategies for Helping Today’s Teens Cope With Modern Stressors and Pressures
This playbook explores strategies that can help manage mental health while ensuring students stay on track in their learning journey.
While the teen years have always meant significant physical, emotional and social change, the modern adolescent experience has become increasingly complex. Today’s teens have been raised in a world full of challenges: constant social media influence, mounting anxiety and depression, bullying, increased substance use and abuse, comparison to their peers and uncertainty about their future.
This is worrisome because an adolescent’s experience can shape future outcomes; without adequate coping skills and support, health and well-being in adulthood may be negatively affected.
In this playbook, we’ll explore the role the school community can play in helping adolescent students cope with modern stressors and pressures. Topics include:
- • Top external pressures today’s teens are facing.
- • Six strategies for empowering teens to forge a healthy path.
- • The importance of fostering student well-being beyond academics.
