Last chance to provide input!
Every community is different. The people, the neighborhood, the opportunities, and how we choose to guide our children through life are all unique. If you haven't already, please take 6-7 minutes to complete our parent/guardian survey. It helps us understand our community and tailor our programming for you and your children. Everything we do is to help ensure our youth have a strong, successful and healthy future. To thank you for your time, five randomly selected winners will receive a $10 Starbucks gift card.
Festive, Fun Holidays for Everyone
It's that time of year that the good plates and fancy glassware come out for festive gatherings with family and friends. Help everyone at your party feel special by providing fun drinks for all your guests, including those who cannot or choose not to drink alcohol. This of course includes young people under 21 years old, but also guests who have medical conditions, who are in recovery, are pregnant, or are the designated driver.
Get drink recipes and other ideas to help everyone feel comfortable in CTAD's Festive Fun handout.
