SACY Workshops in December and January

The goal of SACY  (Supporting And Connecting Youth) is to enhance the prevention and brief intervention infrastructure in VSB schools and surrounding community to prevent substance use, delay substance use and reduce substance use related problems. 

Although the SACY workshops are geared towards parents with teenagers, there is no harm in attending them if you're children are younger. It's always good to be informed.

Here are the details of some upcoming workshops:

SACY believe that young people that feel connected to their schools, who have supportive family, and have adult allies and mentors are stronger, healthier and better able to live up to their full potential. Learn all about SACY and their upcoming events on the VSB website.
