Last November, the DeWitt County Substance Abuse Coalition hosted Tim Ryan, a nationally renown speaker at Clinton High School.
The coalition is discussing something similar this year. Secretary of the Substance Abuse Coalition, Pam Schwartz, indicates they are considering a St. Louis area team to bring in and talk with the youth.
Additionally, the Coalition is looking into creating their own version of the 'Hidden in Plain Site' demonstration. It was an exhibit at their Clinton Cares event on the downtown square that shows a teenagers bedroom and shows places they might be hiding drugs.
The substance abuse coalition meets the third Tuesday of each month at 10 am in the Warner Library's Revere Room and is seeking new faces and perspectives. If interested, contact Pam Schwartz at the DeWitt County Sheriff's office for more information.
