Our community-based approach to substance use prevention prioritizes education and connection to deepen trust and shift perspectives.

Substance use prevention works when teens and adults feel supported, understood, and engaged in learning. Instead of imposing outdated and rigid boundaries like “Just Say No,” we engage communities in paradigm-shifting conversations, helping learners truly understand why “No” might be something they want to say in the first place.
