Our Mission

To work in partnership with the community to empower youth to make positive life choices, thereby preventing and reducing the use of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs among area youth.

Back to School!

Did you know that parents have a BIG impact on whether or not their kids use alcohol and other substances?  Over 80% of young people ages 10-18 say their parents are the leading influence on their decision to drink or not.  Talking early and often to your kids can reduce the chances they will use substances before they are 21. 


We have various resources available free of charge to help with these tough topics.  Contact us for more information.
