A promise can grow into something we see all year long. 🌷🎀

During Red Ribbon Week, we'll be Planting the Promise by planting red tulips as a symbol of our commitment to living drug-free. When the tulips bloom in the spring, they'll serve as a reminder of the promise we made not only this week, but all year long.

Plant the Promise this October and look for the beautiful blooms in April!

Stress is part of life, but healthy coping skills can help young people navigate challenges without reaching for substances.

Healthy coping can look like:
✔ Spending time with supportive people
✔ Getting active
✔ Having creative hobbies
✔ Journaling
✔ Listening to music
✔ Asking for help when needed

Building coping skills is part of building resilience.

Substance use prevention isn’t limited to one week or one month.

It happens through everyday conversations, supportive relationships, and strong communities.

Thank you to everyone who is helping create spaces where young people feel empowered to make healthy choices.

Red Ribbon Week has a history rooted in prevention, remembrance, and community action.

What began as a way to honor the memory of DEA Special Agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena and his dedication to stopping drug trafficking has grown into a nationwide campaign encouraging young people, families, and communities to make healthy, drug-free choices.

This Red Ribbon Week, we’re continuing that tradition by showing that prevention starts with all of us.

Today marks the start of Red Ribbon Week! 🎀

This year's theme, "Make A Difference. Be A Hero. Stay Drug Free." is a reminder that we can all be heroes in our own communities.

Choosing to be drug-free can help build a stronger, healthier future where young people thrive.

Remember, you don’t need superpowers to be a hero. Showing support, kindness, and connection can make all the difference.

Prevention and mental wellness go hand in hand.

Healthy coping skills, open conversations, and supportive environments can help young people manage stress, build resilience, and increase overall wellbeing.

Sometimes it can feel like “everyone is doing it,” but perception doesn’t always match reality.

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), many young people actually say no to substances every day.

Creating supportive environments and open conversations can help reduce pressure and encourage positive decision-making.

Mental health support is substance use prevention.

When teens have access to trusted resources and someone to talk to, they have tools to navigate stress and challenges in healthier ways.

These resources are available to Montgomery County teens and families 24/7 when support is needed.
