Vulnerable kids from Madison’s north side are gaining confidence, experience and knowledge this summer through a program called STREAM. We talk with David Smith and Cheryl Knox from the nonprofit Door of Hope about how they’re working to help kids and families flourish in the fields of science, technology, recreation, engineering, art and math.

Raising teenagers can be many things, but certainly not boring! Wisconsin native Amy Betters-Midvedt would know as she’s currently parenting her fifth teen. We talk with her about her new book, “You’ll Make It (And They Will Too) – Everything No One Talks About When You’re Parenting Teens.” She shares what she’s learned from her experiences, including how to respond when they rebel, communicate with them more effectively, and lean on God for support.
