Young people are facing an epidemic of loneliness. With screens constantly in their hands and groups of friends around them, students still feel isolated, disconnected, and uncertain.
This lack of connection impacts many areas of their lives—from school attendance and graduation rates to risky behaviors that prevent them from reaching their full potential.
For 35 years, Right Moves for Youth has been tackling this issue head-on.
Through weekly group meetings led by staff, school resource officers, and sometimes community volunteers, Right Moves provides teens with the opportunity to connect, build relationships, and gain the support they need to overcome life’s challenges.
Ryan Grammatico, from Right Moves for Youth, joins us to talk about how the organization is helping students not only achieve academic success but also become better employees, better citizens, and more prepared for the future ahead.
