OWN — the Oprah Winfrey Network — is looking for families for a new show, and are casting their net in Altadena. They tell us:
We are looking to speak with families in different LA communities, including Altadena, that might be struggling with their teenagers. From the producers of CBS' "Undercover Boss", we are casting for a new documentary series for OWN. This is a positive-change show aimed at helping a family by bringing together neighbors and strengthening community. Each episode will feature a different family confronting challenges with their teen, then we will rally the community to help the family. The help will come from friends, family, neighbors and free services. At the end of the day, this show intends to create a greater sense of community for the whole neighborhood.
We’re seeking families who are at the end of their rope with their kids’ behavior:
- Does your teen break all your rules?
- Is your child a victim of peer pressure or bullying?
- Is your child acting out, talking back, failing school?
- Smoking, drinking, experimenting with drugs?
- Ditching, sneaking out, hanging out with the wrong crowd?
- Have you tried everything, but nothing is working?
Requirements:
- Families must have at least two children who live at home
- At least one child should be a teenager

- Your name, email AND phone number
