Keynote Speakers
Kenneth R. Ginsburg MD, MSEd, is a Professor of Pediatrics at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. He practices social adolescent medicine — medicine with special attention to prevention and the recognition that social context and stressors impact upon both physical and emotional health. The theme that ties together his clinical practice, teaching, research and advocacy efforts is that of building on the strength of teenagers by fostering their internal resilience.
Dr. Ginsburg is the Co-Director of the Center for Parent and Teen Communication, which promotes the health, character and well-being of adolescents through education, research and advocacy. He is also the Medical Director for Covenant House, Pennsylvania, a care system that serves homeless, street and marginalized youth in Philadelphia.
He developed the teen-centered method, which is a mixed qualitative/quantitative methodology that helps youth to generate, prioritize and explain their own proposed solutions to social problems and to teach clinicians how to better serve them.
Manuel Portillo is the director of community engagement at Welcoming Center for New Pennsylvanians. He is originally from Guatemala and came to the United States as a refugee during the internal armed conflict of the 1980s that left over 250,000 dead or disappeared. He has founded and worked with various nonprofit organizations and has worked with immigrant and non-immigrant communities utilizing institution and faith-based organizing, popular education, digital storytelling and career pathways and employment with foreign-born professionals.
