Prevention thru Positive Choices
“I can’t begin to say how impactful and engaging the assembly was . . . I honestly don’t have the words – I was so moved. . . From the content of the show and the popular music/lasers, to you speaking about your son . . . to the teachers reminding the students they’re supported, and your team getting up on stage and talking to the kids. I had tears in my eyes on so many occasions . . . I loved that the kid gloves came off, and the very real reality was presented without sugarcoating it. They were treated like the young adults they are. . . . this will stick with them into adulthood.” Sarah Popa
