Calling all Dallas high schoolers (and the parents who know they'd crush this)!

CARE-Dallas and United Against Use present the Dallas High School Nudgeathon, a two-day behavioral science competition where students team up to design real solutions to youth substance use.

Small nudges. Big change.

Day 1 – Kickoff: Sunday, Oct 4, 1–4 PM
Students learn the science of "nudges" from an expert speaker, form teams, and get their challenge.

🗓 Day 2 – Pitch Day: Sunday, Oct 11, 1–3 PM
Teams pitch their ideas to judges from behavioral science, medicine, and public health. Awards for top teams!

Moody YMCA, 6000 Preston Rd, Dallas, TX
Open to grades 9–12. Teams of 1–4, and solo students will be placed on a team. No experience needed!

It's a great chance for students to build real problem-solving skills, work with experts, and add something meaningful to their college applications.

Registration closes Friday, October 2nd!

Please share with any high schoolers, parents, teachers, or counselors in the Dallas area!

You don’t have to navigate life alone.

Connection, support and hope can make all the difference.

Recovery doesn’t follow one path or one timeline. It can look like asking for help, setting a boundary, rebuilding trust or simply choosing to try again today.

However your journey looks, every step forward matters. Recovery is personal, progress is progress and you don’t have to do it alone.

Today is National Fentanyl Prevention and Awareness Day. This month alone, our community helped us put nearly 600 boxes of NARCAN into the hands of families, schools, and neighbors across North Texas. Every single one is a second chance at life and none of it happens without you. 💜

You are more than your hardest day, your past, your mistakes or what you’re facing right now. Tomorrow holds second chances, unexpected joy and the opportunity to keep becoming the person you’re meant to be.

You are worthy of support, hope and a fresh start. Your story isn’t over—there are still so many things worth staying for. ✨
