WHAT
Over the four days, January 25, 26, 27 and 28, SPH will host a special screening and discussion of the film series, The Raising of America. This five-part documentary to air on public television explores the question: Why are so many children in America faring so poorly? What are the consequences for the nation’s future? How might we, as a nation, do better?
Join us on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday to watch the series when it investigates these questions through different lenses:
What does science tell us about the enduring importance of early life experiences on the brain and body?
What it is like to be a parent today? And what policies and structures help or hinder the raising of healthy, happy and compassionate children? Episode one covers all three of these issues.
WHEN
Episodes 1-5 will be shown over a 4 day period (Jan 25th-28th). Each screening day will start promptly at 3:00 and run until 4:30 pm. Please see the flyer for the screening schedule. No RSVP required.
