Strong families make strong communities. When you sponsor community forum featuring Words Can Work DVDs and booklets you invest in your community.

Plan a community forum with key community stakeholders to initiate a lifesaving dialogue about issues affecting adolescents and young adults. Forum for large groups or small feature any of our DVDs. Participants view and discuss the video and receive Words Can Work booklets and other take home materials.

Our DVD Depression: True Stories was featured in a community forum co-sponsored by Mass General Hospital and the Mass Department of Mental Health. Hundreds of educators, parents, advocates, policymakers, law enforcement officials, and work/life professionals viewed and discussed the DVD with an expert panel. Attendees received DVDs and Words Can Work booklets for their community outreach. Read one school's response. Read more comments.
