Join us for our #InMyShoes Twitter Chat!

On January 27 at 7 PM, Rosecrance will host a Twitter chat moderated by @RosecranceNews featuring Dr. Thomas Wright @TeenAddictionMD

The #InMyShoes chat will offer parents tips and strategies for talking to their teens about tough issues such as teen substance use and abuse, helping them understand what it’s like to walk in their shoes.

This is a time when parents need to be involved with their teens’ lives and help them navigate complex issues. While many parents may think of their teen as grown-up, teenagers have said this is a time when they need their parents the most, especially on tough topics.
