Teen Productions was born from the belief that young voices are powerful tools for change. Our student advocates don't just speak out — they create, educate, and inspire through their own words. Every newsletter article and podcast episode reflects real passion, personal commitment, and a drive to make communities safer and stronger. Working hand-in-hand with MADD, these young leaders educate their peers, raise awareness, and spread influence within their schools, neighborhoods, and beyond. They are beacons of change, practicing advocacy at both the micro and macro levels — shaping conversations in their friend groups, and helping MADD spark change across the communities they call home. This is more than just reporting — it's advocacy in action, led by teens who believe that their stories can make an impact.
Healthy Teen Talks is a podcast by teens for teens to discuss all things prevention with the Teen Influencer Group of Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), California. The purpose of the Teen Influencer Group is to provide leadership development for teens by training them to be peer-to-peer educators. These teens provide MADD with the youth perspective and use their voice to educate the public. By reducing and then eliminating underage drinking, these teens will help MADD end drunk driving.
