"The 2009 Media Literacy Conference was a great conference – enlightening, engaging and timely!"
Leslie Knight, SSgt, PaANG, Drug Demand Reduction Specialist
"It was well worth the travel to attend your conference. I had to leave early to visit a sick friend in Avondale, PA but the time I was there was very rewarding. Any conference that has Renee Hobbs as a presenter is a serious and important event. I applaud all those that arranged this meeting. The keynote speaker was inspiring. The conference was a wonderful combination of academics with the gritty realism of drug use."
"Bravo and I will be back."
Jim Metrock, President, Obligaiton, Inc. (Alabama)
"Regarding the Media Literacy Conference...I thought it was fantastic! Both Brian and Renee did such a great job. I am still reeling from what I learned. It made me angry with the tobacco companies as well as the liquor producers. I always looked upon drinking and smoking as a choice...but now I see it as taking advantage of targeted people for profit. The message and the critical skills with media need to be spread."
Janie A. Hecker, Supervisor of Auxiliary Services, Colonial Intermediate Unit 20
"This conference is a MUST for anyone who works with youth in today’s techno-world. The experience was enriching and stimulating, giving me the tools and skills I can now use in my work with young people finding their way in the world."
Helen Gyimesi, Drug and Alcohol Prevention Educator, Education Resources, Memorial Hospital
"It was truly the most beneficial conference I have attended in some time! I have gained knowledge and made contacts. We are very excited to begin using some of the resources."
John Oster, SAP Coordinator, PA Cyber
"I want to express my appreciation for such an educational and exciting conference. I found myself looking at ads in a whole new analytical way."
