Awareness!

  • This event centers on community, awareness, and open conversation. It is designed to create a safe and welcoming environment for individuals and families to discuss the realities of substance use and its impact. By bringing people together, we aim to foster understanding, connection, and collective action in addressing this issue.

  • Attendees can expect a wide range of educational and engaging experiences, including informational displays, guest speakers, personal stories, and access to valuable resources. Light refreshments will be provided. The event will explore multiple aspects of addiction, prevention, and support. Participants are also encouraged to bring their own insights, experiences, or resources to contribute to the discussion.

  • Our mission is to support and empower youth as they navigate challenges related to insecurity, mental health, and the coping mechanisms that can lead to harmful outcomes. We also aim to equip parents with the knowledge and tools needed to protect and guide their children.

    Substance abuse continues to affect individuals, families, and communities. Those impacted deserve to be heard, supported, and understood. This event is one step toward creating that space and driving meaningful change.oes here
