​Seventy-five (75!) degrees last week, 20 degrees this morning.  What is going on?  This roller coaster is just getting started.  Here comes spring!  Time to welcome new growth of every kind.  At glow media, we are gearing up for a birth of sorts.   After almost six months of post production, our three new short films addressing sensitive topics affecting today’s youth are almost ready.  SAVE THE DATE!  The world premiere of This is Me, Do Supermodels Eat Popcorn, and Gotta Get It is Thursday, May 11, 2017, 7pm at the Figge Theater at Georgetown Preparatory School in Bethesda, Maryland.  Invitations will be sent later this month. 
 
The evening will kick off with a cocktail and hors’doeuvres reception, followed by film screenings and an expert panel discussion. This will be a wonderful opportunity to see first-hand how these films will effectively take mental health education to the next level.  Our curriculum guides will adhere to both Common Core Standards as well as ASCA (American School Counselors Assn) Mindsets and Behaviors.  The arts are a valuable teaching medium for academic subjects like math and science, as well as subjects addressing social emotional wellness.  
 
Stigma is one of many reasons why an estimated 70% of adolescents with behavioral health needs do not access treatment (Chandra, A.; Minkovitz, C. S. 2006).  At glow media, we strive to reduce stigma, correct misconceptions and reinforce the reality that mental health affects everyone.   I think you will agree that these new films embody that goal.
 
Check out the trailers for the new shorts here:  http://www.glowmedia.org/filmtrailers.html
 
Stay tuned for the Bethesda premiere invitation.  To learn about scheduling a screening and panel discussion at your child’s school, local community center, or after school program, email at the address below.

Thanks for reading! - Trish

I may not be able to attend the world premiere of This is Me, Do Supermodels Eat Popcorn, and Gotta Get It last May, I am still so sure that everything went well that day. Why am I so sure about this? It is simply because of the fact that you have given your all just to make everything perfect for you. Your hard works have been finally paid off. It looks like things are now happening the way that you have planned it. I can imagine the victorious look that you have that night while watching how everything is going well. I am so excited to know more about what happened on this event.
