Did you know that 1 in 5 Windham southeast high-school students have misused a prescription (Rx) stimulant or opiate (pain reliever), not prescribed to them, at least once; and 1 in 10 have misused an Rx medication in the past 30 days?

Brattleboro Area Prevention Coalition (BAPC) will be hosting a Community Conversation - Preventing Teen Rx Misuse on Tuesday, April 29th 6-8pm at the Brattleboro Union High School in the multipurpose room. This event is designed to bring teens, parents, adult mentors, educators and community members together, using a "World Cafe" styled event, to discuss and develop solutions to prevent youth Rx misuse.

Teens and adults will take part in determining achievable strategies to address teen Rx misuse and create an opportunity to develop and execute strategies in the coming year.

Dinner will be served and RSVPs are requested:
