I was very excited to be a part of our new CADA/CASL Teen Truth Live Road Show. It is a collaborative drive to reduce bullying and improve school culture. The Road Show made its first stop in Orange County on January 25.
There were close to 200 of us in attendance. It’s an avenue to empower local leaders one community at a time. Uniting our community is so important. By sharing our resources and working together we can reach some amazing goals. “Reaching Out” and connecting with each other helps to create this unity of kindness. Listening to the voices of our students was emphasized. It’s so easy to be nice . . . to just “Reach Out” and say hello. Communities need to be connected. It’s time for us to “Reach Out” and make a difference.
Teen Truth started the event with an amazing video. A panel of local community leaders then shared ideas and answered questions. CADA President elect Paul Chylinski shared the new CADA website full of lesson plans for activity directors to use to improve school culture.

It was an outstanding first stop. I’m very excited to jump in my vehicle and drive this road show to my district. Don’t miss hearing all about at the CADA Convention in March!
