In this episode, CEO of Just Say Something Phil Clark introduces two of the organization’s summer interns, Jocelyn and Sebastian, who lead the intern team this year. Jocelyn shares her journey from volunteering in high school to now preparing for medical school, while Sebastian discusses how the internship aligns with his goal of becoming an adolescent psychiatrist.
They talk about the impactful work they're doing, such as visiting local camps and schools to educate middle school and even elementary students about substance abuse, bullying, and teamwork. Both interns reflect on how much younger kids are now exposed to substances like nicotine and alcohol.
They also discuss launching a new TikTok account (@justsaysomethingsc) to reach a broader audience with educational and engaging content. Another topic is the upcoming “Take It Back Youth Summit,” which aims to bring together youth and partner organizations to further spread awareness.
The episode wraps up with comments from both interns on how the experience has shaped their understanding of community, communication, and prevention education.
