Our goal: To prevent youth substance use.
Plan and apply evidence-based strategies, Statewide Mass Media, and Positive Youth Development training within the Teller County community. Work alongside youth to help create opportunities for young people that build skills, foster trusted relationships, and create healthy behaviors.
Youth between the ages of 9-25 can volunteer! Youth voice is important. As adults, we can make decisions that we think will benefit our young people but in reality, it is young people who know how to reach other young people. Youth opportunities include
- working with other youth on a workgroup
- attending and helping out with events
- building skills for the future
- educational / teaching opportunities with peers
- potential mentoring
