You Can Help By Investing in Drug Prevention!

Did You Know...

The average age of first use of any drug is 12 and every child is at risk to use alcohol, tobacco, or other drugs. The problem is real.

Kids and drugs are a deadly combination; yet, when we prevent youth from drinking, smoking, or using other drugs, we create a community with less crime, fewer illnesses and injuries, and fewer devastating deaths. We create a future with unlimited potential for children.

Our agency works to prevent youth from using alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs by changing the environment that encourages children to use drugs. We are involved in various drug prevention activities that touch the lives of every community member.

Are you the parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, cousin, neighbor, or friend of a child under the age of 21?

We need your help! Due to changes in grant guidelines, funds supporting the work of our agency have been significantly reduced. Nevertheless, our services continue to be invaluable to every community member. Our continued success is only possible with support from all of you.

Every $1 invested in substance abuse prevention saves up to $20 in the treatment of alcohol, tobacco, and other substance abuse.
