Abuse. If It Happens to You
This program is designed to help young teens understand that abuse, of all types, is more common than they think and if it happens to them, they need to tell a trusted adult. It examines the different types of abuse that can occur: physical, emotional and sexual, and helps young teens understand that the victim is never at fault and did not cause or deserve the abuse. One of the biggest reasons victims don't speak out is because they think no one will believe them. This program assures young people that while this can happen in some cases, the victim must continue to speak out until someone listens and takes what they say seriously. Use this program to educate your students and help them come forward if they have been abused.

Brain Gains: Better Grades Through Fitness
The National visits an inner city high school in Saskatoon, SK, where teacher Allison Cameron tests the theory that vigorous daily exercise improves academic performance. City Park Collegiate is considered a high school of last resort for kids who haven't been able to make it anywhere else. The Grade 8 and 9 students contend with a wide range of behavioural problems: almost half are diagnosed with ADHD and many work at a Grade 4 level. When Allison came across groundbreaking research by Harvard psychiatrist John Ratey (author of Spark), showing a link between sustained aerobic activity and the brain's ability to learn, she took the data to her principal to make the case for a new approach. For Allison and her students, the program was a runaway success and test results prove it.

Teen Truth: An Inside Look at Body Image
What do teens see when they look in the mirror? Regardless of how closely their actual bodies match their perception, teenagers' body image can dramatically affect their self-esteem, eating and exercise habits, relationships with others and ultimately their health. Using the Teen Truth signature "video by students for students" style, the video captures real teens, parents, physicians, a coach and an entertainment professional discussing how celebrities, media, sports and peers influence one's body image and may lead to dangerous habits. Three compelling personal stories reveal how peer and media influences drove these teens to engage in life-threatening behaviours. These stories include teasing and exclusion led Emily to develop an eating disorder and Kayla to binge eat her way to obesity, while Nolan's desire to be bigger, stronger and faster ended in health hazards due to his performance enhancing drug use. A father's sobering account of how steroids claimed the life of his baseball star son drives home the seriousness of this issue. In the end, the film challenges viewers to think differently about how they see their body image and the body image of others. Ultimately it empowers teens to find true strength and self-acceptance from within.

The "Are You a Bully" Test?
Many people may be bullies and not even know it. This program challenges students to think about their own behaviour with a series of seven questions about physical, verbal, and exclusionary bullying. Questions include: Have you ever punched, shoved, or hit another boy or girl? Do you ever make fun of or tease other students or call them mean names? Do you often make fun of others because they are "different" from you or your friends? Have you purposely not invited someone to hang out with you and your friends? Do you gossip about other people or spread rumors via text messages or through social network sites? After each question students describe their own experiences as victims and perpetrators of bullying. Their stories and comments by Joel Haber, a leading bullying expert, show how bullying hurts both the person being bullied and the bullies themselves.

The Fall and Rise of Theo Fleury
This is the story of Theo Fleury, who, against all odds, established himself as a major star in the National Hockey League. In his rookie year, he helped the Calgary Flames win the Stanley Cup and went on to rack up Hall of Fame stats. But, through it all, he was as troubled as he was talented and tough.
This Fifth Estate episode relates Fleury's remarkable story, the staggering fall from grace that cost him millions of dollars, his family and almost, his life. Fleury talks about how he struggled back from the brink of despair to become clean and sober and ready to help others. He candidly discusses the dark issues that haunted him during the glory years, including the sexual abuse he experienced as a teenager at the hand of the now notorious junior hockey coach, Graham James. Behind Fleury's public bravado was a man struggling with addictions to alcohol, drugs and sex. His candid and unsentimental recounting of those years and, finally, his vanquishing of his demons, will be an inspiration to many - a cautionary tale for others.
This video opens a dialogue for youth to be aware of these issues and to not feel as alone.
