Parenting Seminars/Retreats/Workshops:
In her seminars and retreats, Judith talks with
parents candidly about the warning signs and red flags inherent
in drug use and abuse. She challenges them to look at school
attendance and performance in their children, attitudinal issues,
behavior changes, friends that are new or that kids are secretive
about. As a mother herself as well as a long-time teacher of teens
and college students, Judith has a unique insight into the patterns
of behavior and parental frustration with not knowing where their
child is or what she or he is doing or doing it with. She hands
parents the tools necessary to make their home a healthy environment
in which to raise healthy, Godly children. Judith brings to the
table her own personal experience with being raised in a Christian
home, building appropriate and healthy boundaries as a young person
and then falling into the abyss of addiction and destruction
herself. She is a noted speaker and writer, and has a Masters
degree in Counselor Education. Her thesis and subsequent research
has focused on how to recognize addiction in adolescents. Her
message is a powerful source of healing for families in crisis. Included
in this emphasis will be Judith's book, The Other Woman at the Well.
Adolescent and Parenting Seminars/Retreats/Workshops:
Judith has the unique ability to draw her
audience in, whether she is speaking to young teenagers, their
parents, or their grandparents and teachers. Her story is
compelling in its candor and in her willingness to roll up
her sleeves and share her scars with the young people she is
teaching. When she tells them stories about addiction from her
own experience, they do not whisper amongst themselves, they
do not reach for mints or gum, rather they sit forward and
focus completely on what this healed woman of faith and miracles
has to say to them. She concludes her message with a very honest
question and answer session and will sign copies of her book for
anyone who wishes to take home the very real and moving story
from The Other Woman at the Well.
Leadership Seminars/Retreats/Workshops:
Minister's Institutes, Church Conventions,
Corporate Retreats, and Church Leadership Retreats and Seminars
are additional ways to use the ministry of Judith Ann Hillard and
another of the ways that God continues to use her to help leaders
put their priorities in order and focus on the children and young
people in their midst and in their own homes.
Speaker Fees:
In most situations, Judith is willing to come
on an honorarium or free-will offering basis, plus expenses.
There are some exceptions to this, but this is the usual
arrangement. She is booked in advance, so it is best to contact
her via email with any speaking inquiries.
