Did you know that 1 in 10 teens say that they don’t have a trusted adult that they can turn to? The Utah Department of Health Family and Youth Outreach are seeking to change that statistic. This month we are talking with Elizabeth Gerke from the Teen Speak program. This training provides parents or other trusted adults strategies to communicate with youth. Being or becoming an ‘Askable Adult’ includes creating a safe environment for youth to feel comfortable to ask any type of question. Data shows that supportive adults can have a profound impact in a young person and their behavior. Classes and materials are free of charge.
