FAQ
Questions schools ask us.
What makes TEEN TRUTH different from other school assemblies?
Most assemblies are a speaker and a microphone. TEEN TRUTH pairs a live speaker with award-winning, student-filmed content, so students see real stories from people their own age and hear a message built for your campus. For more than 20 years, schools across North America have trusted TEEN TRUTH to strengthen school culture. In an independent study at Union High School (NJ), 95% of students said the message was clear, relatable, and easy to understand.
Can the assembly be customized for our school's challenges?
Yes. Every assembly is tailored. Tell us what your students are facing, and your speaker shapes the message and selects the student-filmed content to match. Common focus areas include mental health and SEL, student leadership, social media safety, bullying and kindness, and vaping and substance use. Topics can also be combined into one program.
