Susie Vanderlip has presented to over one million teens and adults in 47 states, across Canada.  
She is a favorite for adult and teen association conferences; middle school and high school assemblies; programs for colleges, churches, community/parent awareness, and recovery/rehab organizations. Her programs readily adapt to diverse settings because her message of hope and 
health are universal, crossing cultural, gender, religious, ethnic and age boundaries and address a wide variety of prevention issues.

Susie is a recognized expert in communicating to and about teen issues. She has a depth of experience guiding teens to good choices and creating awareness for youth and adults in emotional wisdom, stress management and life balance. She is passionate about supporting families in seeking recovery and healing from the impact of alcoholism and addiction, domestic violence and neglect within the family system.
