Adolesence: A Drama, A Reality, and an Open Discussion of Experiences in Olathe, Kansas. LIMITED
Thursday May 29, 2025 2:30pm - 4:00pm CDT
Room 1311
This British Television psychological crime drama series created by Jack Thorne and Stephen Graham has elicited strong responses throughout the world. During this interactive presentation we will explore the themes in the four episodes through the lens of professionals, parents, adolescent students, and the you, the participant. We are all currently living or supporting people in this stage here in Olathe, KS. In the four stages of our presentation, we will explore the response of officials when something happens, the effect in school in the aftermath, the inner-thoughts young people need to process, and exploration as parents and community members in our response to so many factors. Our goal will be to acknowledge the challenges, but leave empowered with even stronger collective support for our adolescents.
