Programs for Young People
We offer age-appropriate programs for young people ages 13-26 incorporating theatre, storytelling, and recovery coaching. Our sessions increase self-esteem, resilience and connection. We train all ages who support wellness in adolescents and emerging adults.
While 85% of adults with a substance use disorder start using as adolescents, there is a critical gap in services for the early intervention and treatment of problematic substance use in young people. The unique developmental needs of young people and long-term implications of early addiction go unaddressed in most recovery curricula.
Meghann Perry Group addresses this gap through innovative, creative programs for young people and the people who support them, including 66 hours of workforce training specific to supporting young people.
Clear masks allow everyone to fully participate – including deaf and immunocompromised cast members.
