2025 BU Wheelock Forum: Thriving in the Middle School Years, Day 2

Join the 2025 BU Wheelock Forum to examine the deficit narrative of early adolescence that has resulted in youth ages 10–15 being overlooked, undervalued, and minimized in research, policy making, and investment. Join us to explore the complexity of this pivotal time in adolescent development and the ways in which systems and strategies can be refocused to help students thrive.

On March 28 (Day 2), the Forum's dynamic schedule includes presentations, panel discussions, and more. Special guest speakers include:

-Dr. Wendi Williams, psychologist, advocate, and educator

-Dean Penny Bishop, BU Wheelock

-Tina Durand, clinical associate professor, developmental psychologist, and author, BU Wheelock

-Michael A. Medina, researcher, assistant professor, and program director, BU Wheelock

The 2025 BU Wheelock Forum is a two-day event. Join us for either or both days! To learn more about the Forum's speakers and agenda, visit www.bu.edu/wheelock/forum.
