💛💙 P2P Coalition — A New Year. A New Direction. ACTION.

Today was more than just our September Pathways to Prevention Coalition meeting.

We took our first coalition picture together — and for me, this picture represents a fresh start. 📸

A new year. New energy. New partnerships. And most importantly, a commitment to turn conversations into ACTION.

We have spent time rebuilding, realigning, and bringing the right people back to the table. Now it’s time to take what we’ve talked about and put it to work in our community.

One of the first areas we are ready to move forward on is supporting efforts around a Smoke-Free Ordinance and having the conversations needed to create healthier, safer spaces for everyone in our community.

And this is only the beginning.

FY27 is going to look different for P2P. We’re strengthening our sectors, recognizing the partners who show up through our new P2P Coalition Spotlight Award, and making sure our coalition is not simply meeting once a month — we are working together toward measurable change.

To everyone who showed up today, brought your voice to the table, and said “I want to be part of this” — thank you.

Look at this picture, because I believe we’re going to look back on it and remember:

This was the year we stopped just talking about what our community needed and started moving it forward. 💛💙

Today we had the opportunity to bring Hidden in Plain Sight to life with a mock teenage bedroom—and watching participants search the room was a powerful reminder of why prevention education matters.

At first glance, it looks like an ordinary teen’s space. A backpack. A bed. Drinks. Clothes. Everyday items. But when you know what to look for, some ordinary-looking objects can tell a much bigger story.

Participants were challenged to identify items and behaviors that could be potential warning signs of substance use, va**ng, alcohol use, or other risky behaviors. More importantly, we talked about what happens after you notice something: starting conversations, asking questions, building trust, and connecting young people with support.

💡 Hidden in Plain Sight isn’t about teaching adults to “catch” kids. It’s about teaching adults to SEE them.

Prevention starts before a crisis. The more informed our parents, educators, professionals, and community members are, the better prepared we are to recognize concerns early and respond with knowledge instead of fear.

A huge thank you to everyone who jumped in, searched the room, asked questions, and participated today. đź’™

What would YOU notice in a teenager’s room that might make you stop and ask a question?

Know the signs. Carry naloxone. Be ready to respond.

Naloxone can reverse an opioid overdose when given in time. Talk with family, friends, staff, and volunteers about where naloxone is kept and how to use it.

Fake pills can look like real medicine. A pill from a friend, online, or anywhere other than a licensed pharmacy may contain fentanyl.

Look out for each other. Never take a pill that wasn't prescribed to you and dispensed by a pharmacy. If you're worried about yourself or a friend, talk to a trusted adult and get help fast: https://bit.ly/4bZPALM

Education. Prevention. Empowerment.

Communities can help prevent overdose. This August 21, share the National Fentanyl Prevention and Awareness Day™ toolkit, host conversations with families, promote naloxone awareness, and connect people to local support.

Together, we can help parents, caregivers, families, and young people act now before there is a crisis: https://bit.ly/4bZPALM

Parents and caregivers: You don't need perfect words to start a lifesaving conversation.

Ask what your child or teen has heard about fentanyl and counterfeit pills. Listen without judgment. Share the facts. Keep the door open.

It's never too early to talk about safety, substance use, mental health, and how to ask for help: https://bit.ly/4bZPALM

August 21 is National Fentanyl Prevention and Awareness Day™—a day to remember lives lost to overdoses involving illegally made fentanyl and take action to help prevent future loss.

Counterfeit pills can look like real medication, but they may contain fentanyl. You can't see, taste, or smell fentanyl. Even one pill can be deadly.

This year, start a conversation with the young people in your life. Talk early. Share facts. Help prevent overdose: https://bit.ly/4bZPALM
