The Teen Talk Dialogue Sessions Program addresses the social and emotional well-being of teens and young adults aged 14 to 21. The Program gives teens the skills and information needed to begin a path to health and wellness and establish a positive lifestyle, using evidence-based modules that include Open Relationship Building sessions with authority figures such as law enforcement officers, along with yoga and mindfulness, nutrition, and etiquette sessions.

Amplify Community Resources' network of trusted collaborative partners, local law enforcement departments, and community-based organizations work to support and guarantee the Program is effectively delivered with measured results. By committing to a culturally, socially, and linguistically sensitive approach, the Program ensures that its participants will be seen, heard, respected, and equipped with the knowledge and skills to address the challenges faced by many teens and young adults in marginalized communities throughout South Florida.
