Thank you to everyone who attended the COYAD event last night. It was an inspiring evening filled with meaningful conversations and valuable insights. We were especially proud to have 10-year-old Ishaan Arora deliver a heartfelt presentation on the dangers of drug use, demonstrating that even our youngest community members are engaged in making a positive impact.

We also had the honor of hearing from Dr. Nelson, who shared his expertise through a powerful talk titled "Mind Matters: A Family Approach to Supporting Youth Mental Health." Her message highlighted the importance of a united family front in nurturing the emotional well-being of our youth.

It’s truly encouraging to see young people and their families coming together to learn, support one another, and take a stand against substance abuse. We look forward to seeing you all at our next event as we continue working together to create a healthier, stronger community!
