“I’d rather have counselors in the back of my police car than kids”- An Interview with Mary Birks, Outreach's Executive Director

This month's episode of Teens Tap In is a fun switch up from our usual content. Outreach College Crew (OCC) member Aiwen (Erin) Chen interviews our very own Executive Director, Mark Birks, to learn how Outreach originated and to celebrate the impact our agency has had over the past 50 years. Erin and the other OCC members also discuss with Mary their experiences and observations regarding school refusal. Their conversation highlights the importance of Outreach's values of community, care & connection to addressing the needs of children, teens and families in the communities we serve across Pittsburgh.
