Dr Wallace will present a talk to an audience of both parents and their teenage children, who will learn how parental perception and popular culture affects adolescent behavior. Dr Wallace has done extensive research with young people and has formed startling conclusions that he will share with adult and teen participants.

Dr Wallace is a frequent contributor to television broadcast stories about teen behavior and has appeared on NBC’s Today Show, CNN, Fox News Channel, and New England Cable News, as well as on ABC, NBC, CBS, and Fox affiliates.

The Newtown Parent Connection, Inc is an organization dedicated to educating and empowering the community in the prevention of substance abuse and embracing families in crisis. This program offers an opportunity for parents or caregivers and their youth to hear the same important message.

Dr Wallace will “empower teens and parents to communicate openly about the critical issues young people face, collaborate on the choices they make, and celebrate the positive steps they take on the way to becoming happy, healthy, and productive men and women.”
