We are local community members that includes parents, teachers, law enforcement, local businesses, religious leaders, health providers and other community activists with the united goal of preventing substance misuse. Our mission is to educate, advocate, and support our community in preventing substance use and promoting healthy lifestyles through collaboration and coordinated local resources.
We strive to prevent substance use and improve mental health for our youth by reducing risk factors and increasing protective factors through evidence-based programs and strategies, while providing access to prevention tools and resources to all members of our community.
