Over the past fifty years, boys and young men have steadily disengaged from school, work, and broader society. They’re falling behind academically, struggling with loneliness and isolation, and facing rising rates of substance abuse and su***de. On Sunday, March 8 at 2pm the Friends of the Montgomery Town Library will show the short film Gone Guys at the library/PSB.



Gone Guys is a 45-minute documentary that draws on the influential work of Richard V. Reeves’ Of Boys and Men, illuminating these challenges through powerful data and compelling personal stories. Many of us have experienced these issues first-hand, but it can be difficult to talk about them. It’s not an either-or choice: caring more about boys and men does not mean caring less about women and girls.



Set in rural Vermont, the film brings national data to life with engaging animation accompanying lived experience featuring young men, educators, mentors, and trailblazing programs that are working to re-engage boys and young men in their communities and reshape their futures.



Following the film there will be a discussion/question & answer period with Lauren Curry, the executive producer and others. This event is free and open to all.
