Community Champions: Tackling Addiction and Safety Together

Episode Overview

  • Zeno Temple's journey from community safety and outreach to law school
  • Navigating social media and internet safety for middle school students
  • Addressing the challenges of online bullying and its impact on today's youth
  • Developing the Future Lawyers of Springfield program to diversify the legal profession
  • Exploring impactful initiatives like Hoop Up Springfield to provide job opportunities for youth
I think it's very important that we kind of instill in our youth that they are individuals and the choices that they make really matter and it matters to their future.
Imagine balancing law school with community outreach to combat addiction and internet safety. That's exactly what Zeno Temple is doing, and in this episode, he teams up with Tony Simmons, the Director of Community and Safety Outreach at the Hampden County DA Office. Hosted by Mike Tourville, this conversation dives into the innovative programs making a real difference in Springfield, MA. From 'Future Lawyers of Springfield' to 'Hoop Up Springfield', these initiatives are more than just buzzwords—they're changing lives.
If you're looking for inspiration on how communities can unite to tackle tough issues, this episode is a must-listen. You'll hear firsthand how Zeno and Tony are empowering youth, promoting legal diversity, and addressing the pressing challenges that affect us all.
