Ballard Family Visits Bureau Valley High School

Testimonial from Mr. Duane Price, Principal, Bureau Valley High School (Manlius, IL):

On March 16, 2023, Bureau Valley High School students were brought together for a guest speaker through the MWAH! Performing Arts Troupe. When Landon Ballard was announced and took the stage, he captivated the audience with his authenticity and tone. He presented a personal narrative that was raw and illuminated the struggles of addiction and mental health faced by many adolescents. The life experiences that he and his wife Amaria shared will, hopefully, resonate with the young adults who experience similar personal battles or empower those not struggling to find ways to recognize and assist others to find means and resources to get the help that they need.
