“Charlie keynoted the Youth at Risk (YAR) conference held annually in June for youth providers at Endicott College in Beverly. Nearly 600 attendees sat attentive as Charlie interweaved anecdotes with creative and practical tools for working with troubled youth. His rapping of music that underscored the power of positive language in communicating with youth drew applause and laughter from the providers. He was the right mix of substance, seriousness and humor. The crowd loved him! I hope we will have another opportunity to work with Charlie in the future.”
