The Truth Speaker program provides seminars, events, assemblies and works with youth organizations, schools, and communities currently in southern California. We use public speaking, assemblies, seminars etc. as a megaphone to show our kids that genuine support exists for them in this world.

 
 

Matthew Iske

“These things live in the shadows. They subsist merely because we are scared to talk about or look at them. When we are able to talk about and accept these issues, they lose their power.”
— Iske

 

Katy Graham

“I want to provide kids and parents with a toolkit that helps them talk about these important issues once they leave my presentation. Whether we want to talk about it or not, they (our youth) are experiencing or doing the things we are scared to address. These conversations need to be had.”
— Graham

 

Rodney Lacanienta

“I have had some incredibly dark times, but those experiences have helped me build the person that I am today. I want to use my experiences and my story to make the world a better place and to let youth know that real support exists for them, no matter what they need.”
— Lacanienta

 

JR Zinzun

“I spent most of my early adulthood filled with anger, trying to get back at those who had wronged me and ultimately sabotaging myself in the process. I can’t help but think if I had someone I respected to talk to, things would have been different. That is what I am here to do.”
— Zinzun

...with the goal to provide HOPE to other youth battling mental challenges and everyday teenage struggles, letting them know that they are not alone, they are not crazy, but rather their minds are special
