Rounding out Red Ribbon Week in spooky fashion! 🎃👻

A big thank you to our high school leaders in Getting to Y who spent their Flex periods this week sharing information, handing out lots of swag, and encouraging their peers to make healthy choices!

Having our friends from the NH National Guard join us today was an extra treat!

What a great way to wrap up a week celebrating healthy choices and substance-free living! ❤️

Halloween should be about costumes, laughter, friends, and memories. Set clear expectations around alcohol and create spaces where teens can have fun without it.

Thank you to the NH National Guard for helping us celebrate Red Ribbon Week with a flyover! NMMS students wore red on Wednesday and formed a human red ribbon at Kelley Park to show their commitment to healthy choices.

A special thank you to the middle school faculty and staff who helped make this event a success!

The Counterdrug Program works with schools, youth groups, and community partners to encourage healthy choices, resilience against peer pressure, and education about the dangers of substance abuse.
