Two Brothers. One Goal. Strengthening Teens In A World Gone Awry (Feat: Yaakov & Avi Barr)
Manage episode 485786879 series 3658179
I had the privilege of sitting down, with the two and only, Avi & Yaakov Barr, who besides for their busy respective schedules, have carved out the time to found one of the UKβs most critical organisations, Jteen.
As you will soon hear, the energy between Avi and Yaakov is something to be admired, two brothers working together to completely change the landscape of teen mental health.
Besides, for the staggering amount of calls and messages they take through their anonymous hotline, supporting teenagers from all walks of life navigate the
challenges they are facing , JTeen also organizes workshops, training events and is bringing New material to school curriculums to further advance positive change in teenage mental health.
Where do such busy people find the time to found and grow charities?
What are the core issues facing teenagers today?
How has the landscape changed since JTeen was founded?
And What can we do to position ourselves for better mental health?
All this and more in this week's episode.
