H-H to Hold 'Conversation' on Understanding Youth Behavior

The is inviting the community to “Be a Part of the Conversation” at 6:30 p.m. on Jan. 25 in the Horsham Township Community Center — located behind the township building — 1025 Horsham Road, as it prepares for the next series of educational events aimed at providing understanding about the choices children and young adults in the community are making.

As a result of the overwhelming response and lively discussions that took place during the last “Be a Part of the Conversation” event, January’s gathering will feature a “Conversation Forum” that will focus on the positive actions parents, friends, educators and community members can take to confront the critical issues of drugs, alcohol and other risky behaviors. A panel of students and young adults will provide insight into the challenges confronting them in today’s society by sharing their experiences dealing with these topics.

The purpose of the “Conversation Forum” is to equip attendees with the necessary tools to have realistic and productive conversations that will lead to improved communication, dialogue and support.
