Youth

Adolescents that experiment with alcohol and drugs before the age of 21 are five times more likely to become dependent on them.  Give yourself a chance, and a future.

Red Ribbon Week

Red Ribbon Week is the oldest and largest drug prevention campaign in the country. It serves as a vehicle for communities and individuals to take a stand against alcohol and drug use by making a commitment to live alcohol and drug free lives.
