FREE EVENT - APRIL 30th
Imagine if you woke up one day and couldn't wiggle your toes...
Join us for an evening with national speaker
KEVIN BROOKS
To Impact. To Motivate. To Inspire.
Thursday, April 30th from 6:30-8:30 PM
Burlington High School
Tired of hearing your kids say "Fine." when you ask how was their day?
On April 30th, students at Burlington High School and Hunt Middle School will be inspired by Kevin Brooks' tragic and powerful story during school assemblies. Parents, caregivers and community members are invited to a FREE YOUPARENT SPONSORED PRESENTATION that evening to hear what your children learned AND how to talk to them about it.
KEVIN'S STORY: Fueled by a deadly combination of alcohol and that "it will never happen to me attitude", Kevin drove away from a party intoxicated and speeding with a friend beside him. His story about how a tragic crash left him paralyzed from the chest down will focus on:
Impaired, distracted and dangerous driving
Suicide prevention, self-harm and depression
Bullying, relationships, forgiveness
Decision making and peer pressure
Leadership and creating positive change
