Too many Cape Cod teens are struggling. It’s time for REAL TALK.
Mental health and substance use challenges are affecting our young people at unprecedented rates. Anxiety, depression, and substance use disorder are becoming all too common, and families are left searching for answers. No child should feel alone in their struggles. No parent should have to endure the pain of watching their child suffer without help.
At Behavioral Health Innovators (BHI), we believe that change starts with open, honest conversations—and action. That’s why we are hosting REAL TALK: A Community Panel & Open Forum Discussion, where we will come together to learn, listen, and find solutions as a community.
Join Us for REAL TALK
📅 Wednesday, March 20th
🕔 5:00 – 7:00 PM
📍 Wequassett Resort, Harwich
🍽 Drinks & Light Appetizers Provided
🎤 Moderated by Tony Guthrie
This event will bring together teens, parents, educators, and mental health professionals to have a real conversation about what’s happening in our schools, in our homes, and in our communities. We will hear firsthand stories from young people, insights from school counselors, and guidance from experts in the field.
This is not just a forum—it’s a movement. It’s about turning pain into progress.
Why This Event Matters
- Youth mental health is in crisis. Cape Cod is not immune to the growing epidemic of anxiety, depression, and substance use disorder among teens.
- We need real solutions. Schools, parents, and communities need support to help our young people navigate these challenges.
- No family should go through this alone. Together, we can create a network of awareness, prevention, and recovery support.
