Protecting
New Jersey’s Kids
in a Digital Age
New Jersey STAT Alliance is a growing coalition working to address the youth mental health crisis linked to screen addiction, social media, and emerging technologies.
Taking a Stand for Our Kids
We bring together parents, educators, policymakers, and community leaders who recognize a shared reality: technology is evolving faster than our ability to protect children from its risks.
Rising rates of anxiety, depression, and social disconnection among young people are not random - they are linked to how children are interacting with screens and digital platforms every day.
We believe childhood should be healthy, connected, and largely screen-free. And we believe meaningful change starts now.
What We Do
Build Awareness & Community
We convene parents, educators, and community members through regular meetings and events to discuss emerging challenges and share evidence-based insights.
Education & Resources
We provide practical tools to help families and organizations reduce screen time, set healthy boundaries, and support children’s well-being.
Policy &
Legislation
We work with elected officials to advance policies that protect children, holding technology companies accountable and establishing common-sense safeguards around youth access and usage.
