For Teens by Teens, Answers to Questions about Addictions

Join us as Teen Health and Wellness Ambassadors lead a question and answer session with adults who have overcome the struggle of tobacco, alcohol or drug use. Teens and adults will discuss together the impact of culture and role that positive lifestyle choices have in healthy living and recovery.

Our guest speaker panel includes Sarah Laurel, founder and executive director of Savage Sisters Recovery, a Philadelphia nonprofit focused on helping those affected by substance abuse disorder and homelessness, JT Frank, founder of Consequence of Habit Inc. (CoH), a non-profit dedicated to empowering individuals and communities by bringing awareness to the impact habits have on our mental health, success and the environment, and Rachel Messaros, a certified interventionist that works with The Recovery Guides as Director of Client Services.
