You can make an impact in your community by joining our coalitions, comprised of professionals and community members whose goal is to spread awareness on mental health and substance use throughout Warren County. Strengthen the capacity of the coalitions to reduce and prevent substance use by generating positive and lasting environmental change. 

By joining our coalitions and attending our monthly meetings, you will have the opportunity to network, share ideas and resources, plan collaborative events and develop into a primary resource for the community. Help us prevent and reduce substance use and underage drinking by addressing access, norms and laws/policies with other community members and professionals.
