Our Mission
Fostering healthy, sustainable communities by empowering people through education, collaboration and by serving as the linkage to resources.
Who We Help
Any person, family and community that needs us. By providing and connecting people to vital health & educational resources, we combat the negative impacts of drugs, violence, and inadequate educational and health institutions in our communities.
What Sets Us Apart
A combination of genetic, environmental, and developmental factors influences risk for addiction which is why we address all three. We set ourselves apart by approaching prevention and addiction efforts holistically, addressing each individual’s, family’s & community’s needs at every age and every stage of life using evidence-based strategies that work.
Our services both tackle root causes of addiction to prevent it, and fight addiction by widening the doorway to recovery.
At the core of Prevention Links is connection. We support our community’s unique challenges, build strong partnerships, and celebrate the resilience and achievements of those we serve. This year has been transformative, marked by expansion and a commitment to sustainability.
Responding to the youth mental health crisis, we applied for our largest grant yet, aiming to significantly grow our team. With adolescent overdose deaths rising, we’re enhancing youth mental health services to prevent tragedies. This year, we reached a record 20,687 community members.
Thanks to everyone in the Prevention Links family, our journey continues with hope and significant impact. Together, we aim to make Prevention Links a trusted resource for those in need.
