This is the session in which the Shrinks interview Dr. Gail Karafin, past president of PSCP: The Psychology Network, about teen sleep needs and implications for changing school start times.
Since the interview with Dr. Karafin, Pennsylvania Senate Resolution No. 417 was passed. This resolution directs the Joint State Government Commision to establish an advisory committee to conduct a study on secondary school start time in PA.
Dr. Karafin also founded the Pennsylvania Chapter of Start School Later – startschoollater.net/pa.
