Just an FYI for parents- even if the candy comes in a wrapper- and that wrapper looks familiar- it doesn't hurt to read what's in the bag. Marijuana/Cannabis/Weed products when purchased through licensed means are supposed to be in plain, boring packaging. It doesn't mean that lookalike products aren't accessible.

These are strong products, with multiple doses within a single piece of candy. Child consumption is causing emergency room visits.

If you partake in these products, please practice safe storage- you can contact us for a Safe Storage Bag.

The fall round of elementary school prevention programming is taking clicking in. Our goal is to help students develop their Emotional Intelligence- helping them make healthier choices throughout their lives. We have some pretty cool educators coming up with some pretty cool ways to talk about Self-Esteem! Ask your kiddo if The Prevention Team has been there to talk about it yet!

Parenting Tip- join in on finding ways to compliment your kiddo and help build their self-esteem around traits and not just accomplishments or things they like to do!

When we say that we've evolved our messaging, we've evolved our messaging!

Our Prevention Specialists bring a whole host of skills to students that allow them build strong brains and connections with life skills that count.

Class time allows us to teach these important components of wellbeing so that students get to start to practice them- practice while young makes better competency when old! and look at these stats that happen as a result!!!

This week we'd like to thank our specialists and our students for creating SO MUCH HOPE!!!!

Feel free to share any prevention nugget that your child has shared with you.
