Youth Prevention Ambassadors gathered together for a multicultural event today! Implementing substance-free related alternative events is more meaningful with engagements from our fellow Ambassadors, friends and parents. This multicultural event is one of the most highly recommended activity by our youth. It offers connection, cultural pride, skill-building, leadership, team building (as they were grouped according to cultures), which helps youth develop positive identities and healthy social norms without the need of alcohol and drugs.
