The Valley Youth Substance Abuse Coalition brings together local leaders, families, youth, and organizations committed to preventing substance misuse and strengthening the well-being of young people across our valley. Through shared knowledge, coordinated action, and practical support, VYSAC connects the voices and resources needed to help every young person thrive.
Our coalition is built on the belief that prevention is strongest when the whole community has a place at the table. Explore the 12 sectors represented in VYSAC and meet the partners who are advancing this work together.
