Prevention Services
Substance use disorders and other health issues can be stopped before they start.
We provide tools and resources to prevent substance use disorders, overdose, substance misuse, violence, and other issues that threaten the health and livelihood of our communities.
Whether we are at your child’s school for a drug prevention presentation, giving your local seniors tips on staying healthy, or providing a family in your community with a holiday meal, we are here to make sure our communities get the brighter future we all deserve.
