A forum on teen sexting, the harm, the recovery, and changing the law
MetroWest Commission on the Status of Women invite you to:
Franklin High School 218 Oak St Franklin, Ma
Monday, October 16, 2017 7pm - 8:30 pm
Panelists: Representative Jeffrey Roy Officer Jason Reilly, Franklin Police Dept. Christopher Spillane, Franklin Police Dept. School Safety Officer Dr. Elizabeth Englander, Bridgewater State University Kristin Letendre, Director of Health & Phys. Ed, Franklin Public Schools.
Please join us to discuss teen sexting- the harm, the recovery, and changing the law. Representative Roy recently introduced Bill H.948 that would change the criminal process of charging teens as felony sex offenders. Instead, teens would undergo an educational diversion program. When prosecution is considered necessary, the offense will be considered a misdemeanor instead of a felony. We will discuss the current situation in Franklin and other MetroWest towns, how parents can help their children, and the legal implications if a child is sexting. We hope you can join us.
