Free Online Presentations and Podcasts for Teens and Adults
Phoenix House California’s Prevention Team and Youth Opioid Response Team are two teams focused on the youth who are working together to provide online education, resources, and information that are free and at your fingertips.
Thursday Talks
These presentations inform and educate about topics related to preventing drug use, understanding risks of drug use, healthy coping skills, and supporting those in recovery. These are a great resource for parents, guardians, and anyone else who wants to be informed about current drug trends and learn ways to boost prevention and support recovery. They can be accessed anywhere with internet.
Presentations are held live on Zoom most Thursdays from 3pm-4pm in English and from 4pm-5pm in Spanish. If you have questions during the presentations, you can type them in the chat feature for a response from the team. If you aren’t able to catch them live or want to check out their past presentations, they can be viewed by clicking here.
