 A NEW SHOW ON LTV ADDRESSING THE CHALLENGES OUR YOUNG PEOPLE
 AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE FACING

Co-Hosted by
Councilwoman Kathee Burke-Gonzalez
East Hampton High School Principal Adam Fine

In each half-hour episode, the co-hosts interview experts in their field about a wide variety of issues touching the lives of our young people, such as: mental health, anxiety, depression, suicide awareness, underage drinking, electronic smoking devices, drug use, screen addiction, bullying, dating violence, eating disorders, body image, mindfulness, and more. The objective of each episode is to both inform and facilitate an open dialogue between parents and kids, as well as the community at-large, about these important issues.
