Youth

We partner with our local school districts and community organizations to provide prevention education and access to resources for our youth. We have a variety of options to choose from for presentations to meet each school and organizations individual needs.

We offer prevention education on the following:

  • Traditional Tobacco Products
  • Electronic Nicotine Devices (ENDs) / Vaping
  • Prescription Drugs
  • Opioids
  • Stimulants
  • Underage Drinking
  • Marijuana
  • Mental Health
  • Harm Reduction / Naloxone Education

Youth

We partner with our local school districts to provide prevention education and resources centered around tobacco/vaping, opioids, stimulants, underage drinking, marijuana, and mental health.

Adults

Similar to what we provide to the youth in our community, we provide prevention education and resources to our parents, guardians, and caregivers. We believe there is empowerment through knowledge. In order for our youth to make healthy and safe choices, we must provide tools to our adults to be able to answer difficult questions. We speak to various parent groups, at family nights, and even have tables with information and free prescription medication lockboxes at after school events during the school year.

We enjoy every opportunity we get to reach both youth and adults in our community.

Adults

Like what we do for the youth in our community, we provide education and resources to our parents. We do this through PTO meetings, being at athletic events, and speaking at Parent Nights hosted through our local schools. We want to empower parents with knowledge to be able to have those often-difficult conversations.

Community

We are honored to have many community partners within Williamson County.  Our prevention work to both youth and adults is essential, and these partners all play a huge role in us achieving our goal for a health drug-free community.

We thank you for your continued partnership!
