Ground Truthing

We are joined by author and Raise the Age advocate Jim St. Germain on the latest episode of Ground Truthing. At the age of 15, Jim found himself in trouble with the law, just months away from his 16th birthday. Had he been a few month older, he would not have received the rehabilitative services that he did. Today, Jim is a college-graduate, father, author and chairperson of a nonprofit organization called Preparing Leaders of Tomorrow (PLOT). On this episode, Jim tells his story and why he continues to advocate for court-involved youth. Ground Truthing is a Westchester Children's Association production. The show is edited by Eloise Sherrid. Original music is composed by Al Saniuk.
