About Us: Our vision is "creating a safer, healthier community through prevention." This is achieved through projects and activities that may prevent and reduce the impact of substance abuse on the community. Additionally, our efforts include strategies that promote healthy and safe behaviors and attitudes in Washington County in order to create community wide change. Updates and information Contact Us:
 This project is funded by the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services
| Meetings: We hold regular meetings that are open to the public on the 3rd Thursday of every month at 3:30 PM at the Trinity Church on University Parkway in Johnson City, TN. There are some expenses that grants don't cover. If you want to support prevention in the community and region we would gladly accept any amount to support our efforts.
