The Vision of CASEN
What Does Dr. Myava Clark Do?
Dr. Myava Clark is not just an academic; she is the Co-founder and CEO of CASEN (Collaborative Advancement for Social-Emotional Needs) LLC. The core mission of CASEN is to educate parents and children about the safe use of social media. This mission is achieved through four distinct platforms:
- CASEN Outreach: This initiative involves taking CASEN into the community, reaching schools, churches, camps, and more. The primary focus is on teaching bullying identification, highlighting the benefits and dangers of social media, and guiding children on how to navigate social media safely.
- CASEN Education: CASEN offers four comprehensive courses designed to empower both children and parents regarding online safety. These courses cover topics such as Social-Emotional Development, Bullying Identification, Mental Health Development, and Social Media Readiness.
- CASEN Connect: CASEN Connect serves as a precursor to other social media platforms. It educates children on identifying, preventing, and reporting bullying. Furthermore, it imparts knowledge about the do’s and don’ts of social media, understanding one’s digital footprint, and promoting mental wellness education.
- CASEN Parents: This platform offers a safe and judgment-free space for parents and caregivers of children with learning differences and learning disabilities. It facilitates open discussions, allowing parents to ask questions and share insights that can benefit other parents facing similar challenges.
What Excites Dr. Myava Clark in the New Year?
Looking ahead to the New Year, Dr. Clark is most enthusiastic about the prospect of CASEN expanding its reach on a global scale. While recognizing the potential dangers of the internet, Dr. Clark emphasizes that the solution isn’t to restrict children from accessing it. Instead, it’s about educating them on how to use it safely and responsibly. Often, parents may believe their children don’t have internet access because they don’t provide them with computers or smartphones. However, children may access the internet through their peers’ devices, underscoring the critical need for online safety education.
