Our Focus.

Working together we can reduce underage drinking and substance abuse within the Levittown and

Island Trees communities. We are focused on creating a safe community that supports our goals so

we may reach our highest potential.
1

Underage Drinking

Underage drinking is a serious health and safety problem in Levittown and Island Trees as alcohol is the most widely used substance of abuse among our peers.

2

Prescription Drugs/Opioids

70% of those individuals who misuse prescription drugs get them from home or relatives home.  We are focused on educating our peers on the dangers of using prescription drugs.

3

Vaping Nicotine and Marijuana

E-cigarette use poses a significant – and avoidable – health risk to young people. Vaping is not ok!  We are focused on educating our peers so they can make healthier choices.
