Our Local Coalitions
Reach Newsletter May Edition
This month, we are shining a spotlight on Mental Health Awareness Month, where we explore strategies for promoting mental well-being and supporting those in need. In this edition, we also delve into the critical topic of the effects of alcohol on teenage brain development. Gain a deeper understanding of the risks involved and discover resources to help educate and protect our youth.
We Envision a County that Embraces and Promotes the Health and Safety of All Residents.
The Newport County Prevention Coalition is comprised of voluntary members representing and serving multiple sectors of our region. Our focus is to develop, implement, and advocate for effective community based prevention and wellness strategies.
Our commitment to supporting Newport County residents prompts us to continue expanding and determine unmet needs in our community, while seeking to engage residents in our efforts.
We are always looking for members of our community to join our efforts and become apart of the solution!
