Prevention Happens Here,

With Your Participation

Calling all parents, educators, doctors, faith-based organization leaders, policy makers, and prevention professionals — We all need to be made more aware of our shared efforts and the role they play in building healthier kids, families, and adults all across the commonwealth. For many years, prevention efforts have focused on an individual-level: that is, attempting to change a person’s mind. The evolving science of prevention, however, has shown that it is much more effective to change a person’s environment. These new types of strategies have the potential to create longer-term change. We want to rally everyone to the cause of prevention and highlight the effectiveness of collaboration.

We invite you to simply hang up a sign in your office, put a sticker on your window, or launch your own campaign to show those we care about that there is a community out there to support them.
