Our Mission

Empowering youth with essential skills through strong connections,
healthy choices, and community support.

Our Vision

A resilient and compassionate community where every child grows up
supported and empowered ready to rise, lead, and thrive.

Our "Why"

Drugs and alcohol are putting our community and our people at great risk – especially our youth. We are the drivers of change on this issue. We prevent substance abuse by rallying the community to build caring relationships, give knowledge, and develop healthy environments.

Data Driven Work

Each year, youth in Reno County are invited to take part in the Kansas Communities That Care (KCTC) Survey during 6th, 8th, 10th and 12th grades. This anonymous survey provides valuable insight into the challenges our young people face and help us identify key areas for prevention and support. By listening to their voices through this data, we can better target our efforts to build a healthier, stronger community. Click here to view the Reno County data from 2025.
