Screening of "Angst" and Panel Discussion on Anxiety and Teens

North Star Academy and SEPTAR, the Special Education PTA of Redwood City, are sponsoring a special free screening of the national documentary "Angst: Raising Awareness Around Anxiety." The film features a special interview with world-renowned athlete and mental health advocate Michael Phelps, as well as teens and parents sharing deeply personal stories about the impact of anxiety on their own lives, and tips and advice from prominent experts.
Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health challenge in the U.S., but there is hope because the condition is highly treatable.
The showing of the 55-minute film, which will include Spanish subtitles, will be followed by an informative panel discussion including a producer of the film as well as area mental health professionals and local students.
