Youth Advocacy Committee

Youth Advocacy met this morning and decided that a next step for our committee would be to get some teens involved in helping develop drug/alcohol free social alternatives for kids. The mission of our committee is

To help kids make healthy choices by:

  • creating mentorship's
  • providing social outlets
  • encouraging parent-kid dialog
  • identifying leadership opportunities
  • offering Christian youth alternatives
  • establishing positive values
  • defining "a good time" without drugs or alcohol

We would like to get the student government at East and CHHS to support and advertise a meeting regarding this subject before school is out. Tuesday, May 24 or Wednesday, May 25 at lunch would work for our committee. We would need a room, some posters around school and several announcements over the PA. Ginny and Maxecine will make the contacts to set up the focus group.
