Watch 'Angst' At Millburn High School Tuesday

MILLBURN, NJ - Parents and students concerned about rising levels of stress and anxiety are invited to Millburn High School Tuesday for a screening of the film 'Angst' at 7 p.m.

The film aims to start a global conversation and raise awareness around anxiety. Through candid interviews, they utilize the power of film to tell the stories of many kids and teens who discuss their anxiety and its impacts on their lives and relationships, as well as how they’ve found solutions and hope.

The film presentation is for all parents, as well as middle and high school students and is sponsored by the Education Foundation, and district parents Julie and Frank Cohen. According to Superintendent Christine Burton, the program ties into the efforts the district is making reduce stress, and the effects it can have on the students.

"Please plan to join us for Angst: Raising Awareness Around Anxiety, followed by a panel discussion," Burton said.
