TESTIMONIALS
"This year end social media presentation to our rising middle school students was insightful and impactful. This gave them good strategies for management of their social media use. We want the MFF to come back every year to provide this presentation to our students!"
Elementary School Counselor
"Responding to the question posed to the student audience — For those of you who spent over two hours on social media yesterday, do you remember the last story you read? "I don't remember the last thing I watched on social media yesterday! I might need to get rid of my instagram account! This presentation was eye opening."
Elementary School Teacher
"I thought your presentation and preparation were fantastic for the student wellness conference. The students really enjoyed it and are taking away excellent strategies. It was informative and engaging. The strategy with the red and green papers was excellent! Your introduction about your three girls was moving and emotional. I wouldn’t change one thing about the flow of the presentation or the material. I loved how you and Ava bounced back and forth as well."
