Our Story
Merced Coalition for Digital Wellness was founded out of a growing concern for the impact of excessive technology use on our community. Whether it's the effects of screen time on children’s development, the challenge of maintaining meaningful connections in a digital world, or the need for mindful technology practices in schools and workplaces, we saw a need to take action.
We are a group of educators, parents, healthcare professionals, and community leaders dedicated to helping people reclaim balance in their lives. By offering resources, workshops, and support, we aim to help individuals and families create healthier tech habits and cultivate a community where technology serves our well-being.
Our Mission
We strive to empower individuals, families, and educational institutions by promoting a healthier, more balanced relationship with technology. Our goal is to foster awareness, education, and practical strategies to help people navigate the digital world with mindfulness and intention.
Our Vision
A community where everyone can enjoy the benefits of technology without compromising their mental, physical, or emotional health. We envision a world where digital wellness is integrated into daily life, leading to happier, healthier, and more connected communities.
