Dr. Chris Stankovich and Dr. Kalenah Witcher are trained professionals who have spent years developing techniques work with growing students. Both work with students and athletes on a daily basis and will offer insight into what's happening at school, on the field and with their friends. "Research has shown a relationship between parent-adolescent communication and several adjustment outcomes, such as adolescent self-esteem, academic achievement, and well-being. More specifically, adolescent adjustment has been linked with a balance of positive and negative discussions with your teens." [Shannon L. Sachs, OSU Extension] You might think, "they're not listening any way."  But they are. Teens have to adjust to their new bodies and growing mind. New science has revealed that the teen brain continues to develop long after they've grown taller or bigger and they can't make adult decisons yet – mainly because they're not adults and still need your guidance.

What if the system gets it wrong? What trends has Dabney seen? What rights do children have? Ms. Dabney has also served on national, state, and county-wide policy committees with one goal: the continued improvement of child welfare outcomes.  As a noted national experts, she is frequently asked to serve as a consultant to lawmakers on proposed legislation in California aimed at improving the foster care system.

His two-day spirited camp will not only work on basketball fundamentals and life skills. Each camper is eligible for an eye examination and, if necessary, a free pair of glasses. And did you know that an exam can also help detect signs of diabetes? The Game Ready Moms didn't know that either - but learned more about it thanks to Tyreke's efforts to inform the public. "Healthy vision is essential to a child’s ability to learn and achieve their academic and athletic potential. Since vision problems can begin at an early age, children should receive regular comprehensive eye exams — at 6-months-old, 2-years-old, before kindergarten and every year following." We'll also talk to Tyreke about his experiences growing up and what he's learned during his first years in the NBA.

Eighty-three percent of very active girls say that physical activity makes them feel good about themselves. • For girls ages 11-17 it is the perception of being overweight, not just weight alone, that inhibits participation in sports and physical activities. • Many girls ages 11–17 say they do not play sports because they do not feel skilled or competent (40%) or because they do not think their bodies look good (23%).  01:04:00Game Ready MomnoGirls,Athletes,Basketball,Sports,MothersDid you play sports as a young girl or woman?

Dr. Daemon Jones, a MD-based naturopathic physican is a featured instructor and author. To encourage her patients to rediscover healthy eating, Dr. Dae performed cooking demonstrations. She also held demos with cancer and chronic disease organizations to support their goal to improve health through nutrition. In 2007, Dr. Dae self-published her first book, Daelicious! Recipes for Vibrant Living. She incorporates nutrition, cooking and mind-body skills training as part of her treatment plans.  In 2011, Dr. Dae joined Howard University Researchers as a consultan for a pilot study for the effect of yoga and nutrition on HIV positive women. “Deanna, you’re special.  We chose you.” Those were the words that William and Fannie Jones, Ms. Deanna Moore's adoptive parents used to encourage and assure her. Her path to success has been atypical, including years in foster care, completing college while raising her children, caring for her adoptive mother after a debilitating stroke and starting the I Think I Am Foundation to provide programs for families connected by foster care. The motivational speaker inspires families around the country. A graduate of the University of Texas-El Paso, Deanna Moore founded Tender Love Nursing and Rehab Care which primarily provides physical therapy services in hospitals and skilled nursing settings.

A native of Lagos, Nigeria, Mrs. Orakpo migrated to the U.S. after studying at a university in London, England for two years. She landed in Texas, received her degree from Texas Southern and, along with her husband, raised a wonderful family in the Lone Star State. Her son Brian now plays for the Washington Redskins and is one of the best linebackes in the NFL. "It was very challenging because Nigeria is a highly populated country and the schools always filled up, so for some of us who couldn't get into school, we had to find alternatives to get education," she said. "I was very determined to get an education, so I decided to leave the country." Now, Mrs. Orakpo is a business woman who owns a store in the Houston area. She believes in looking, feeling and living fabuolously. Her laughter is infectious. According to Brian, Gloria is his role model. "My [role model is] mother, Gloria Orakpo, for the hard work she put in her whole life. She came from Nigeria and started life all over again. She's been a strong point in our family."
