About this Event
In today's digital world, boys and young men are constantly influenced by social media, peer culture, and online messages about relationships, masculinity, and respect. Unfortunately, many of these messages can contribute to unhealthy behaviors and conflict.
This engaging community workshop led by Kenneth “Kenny” Ollins, Founder of BORN LLC and a retired Juvenile Probation Officer with more than 30 years of experience working with youth in Chicago, explores how parents, educators, and community members can guide boys toward healthier attitudes about digital behavior.
Participants will learn how social media can escalate relationship conflicts and how adults can engage boys in meaningful conversations about respect, boundaries, and leadership.
