Our team knows that Burlington kids need an environment that supports them to remain substance-free while their brains are still developing. The earlier kids start using any substance, the more likely they are to develop problem use. Burlington’s goal should be to delay, delay, delay youth use so those awesome brains can have time to develop to their full potential.
Middle schoolers at Edmunds Middle School have had a passion for supporting health and wellness this quarter! In January, BPHC and BSD staff brought a group of 13 students involved in the in school BE Above youth empowerment group to Randolph Vermont to join other teens from across the state to learn about tobacco related issues impacting youth at the 802 Youth Leadership Summit.
We are excited to have a new partnership to support tobacco cessation with Feeding Chittenden in Burlington, a food pantry that helps over 12,000 people each year, and a hot meal program serving 11,000 people in our communities to provide access to nourishing food.
We’re looking for a self-motivated individual who is good at building relationships and fostering collaboration with and between others, particularly youth.
Our 14th Annual Roots of Prevention Celebration is the perfect opportunity to pause and thank the people building a stronger, healthier Burlington.
