Ashley is the author of "Communicating to Middle Schoolers" and "The Art of Group Talk." She worked for several years as the Director for Middle School Curriculum at Orange, and is currently the Executive Director of Carry 117, a ministry in Ethiopia which focuses on orphan prevention and family preservation by empowering women. In our talk we discuss the ways in which culture is changing for the teens we are working with, and how to see those changes as opportunities rather than obstacles.
