EmpowerED Youth Listening Session

Event Details

EmpowerED Youth is a peer-driven program of Bethany Christian Services of Georgia serving youth ages 12–18 in Troup and Meriwether counties. The program focuses on prevention and awareness of behavioral health and substance use concerns, creating space for honest conversations beyond oversimplified messages like “drugs are bad” or “you’re just sad.” EmpowerED Youth encourages young people to become change agents in their communities while supporting those interested in future careers in behavioral health. 

The listening sessions are the first step in shaping this work and will bring together youth, parents, and community members to share perspectives and help guide the program. Whether you're a youth, parent, caregiver, or community partner, your voice matters. We hope you'll join us!
