Everyone used to make fun of others and I would always get called Goth Girl or Emo because I wore black and kids would think I was a creep. After your TEEN TRUTH LIVE: BULLY & SCHOOL VIOLENCEpresentation everyone gets to know me instead of just judging at first. I have made many new friends and I love it how everyone no longer has to worry about all the pressure. Thank You!!!" - Hannah Elaine Williams, VC Middle School ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FEATURED FILM TEEN TRUTH filmmaking team, Erahm Christopher and JC Pohl, recommend the following film because it made them think THE UNITED STATES OF LELAND Directed by: Matthew Ryan Hoge Written by: Matthew Ryan Hoge Set in a mundane neighborhood in California, this compelling drama made us THINK how easily a teen's negative perspective and concealed truth can result in a tragic action that shatters several lives forever. After a shy sixteen-year-old commits an inexplicable crime, a community tries desperately to understand the youth's actions and cope with life after the tragedy. In the end, it made us realize that the TRUTH is not as simple as it seems. Please watch it and let us know if it made YOU think.

At some point, we all need an attitude adjustment. Take a minute and check in with yourself - what kind of an attitude have you been carrying around today? Is it frustrated? Impatient? Judgmental? Or is it grateful? Excited? Passionate? Whatever attitude we adopt becomes the lens through which we view everything in life. As you'll see from the TEEN TRUTH VOICE, SIMPLE TRUTH, BEST OF TTN and TESTIMONIAL in this report, what you do with your attitude can make a world of difference. TEEN TRUTH is committed to empowering youth to make a difference in their worlds by giving them a VOICE and challenging them to think differently. Read about Westley, the student featured below, who participated in our BULLY & SCHOOL VIOLENCE PROGRAM. We were really impressed with Westley's ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE and wanted to share it with you. We hope you'll take a little of that positivity and pay it forward. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TEEN TRUTH: VOICES"I AM GRATEFUL" Student Westley Copeland tells his TRUTH in this month's TEEN TRUTH: VOICES I am grateful for myself, my health all the words I spelt the heat the cool my family my school I am grateful for my life all the feelings felt right all the people who are nice and the ones who aren't too and for everything that I can do and everything that I can be and all the things that I was lucky enough to see anything and everything from my own broken bones inside of me to the planting of a seed to the growth of a tree and for the thoughts that are of she and for the time I had to be and for the sign that came to me even when I used even when myself abused I am thankful for this time that is done and threw because it made me who I am today its changed my life and that change is here to stay living learning day to day sharing a common goal the drive to denounce the illness that stole myself from me and now I realize I and only I posses the key to open a new door to lead a new destiny whatever it may be I am willing to stay serene ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SIMPLE TRUTH Please read the latest SIMPLE TRUTH from our featured professional contributor "The humble improve." - Wynton Marsalis Here's the thing...we are all good at something. The first step is recognizing that we are good at it - whatever "it" is. The second step is not getting too full of ourselves once we figure that out. Imagine if all of the people around us were humble about their talents. Those who are humble are open to learning, are open to sharing what they know with others. They don't hoard their gift. Imagine if everyone who was good at something was humble enough to share their knowledge and experiences with us so that we could all be talented, too. Wouldn't that just be awesome?!
