We all play a part as a community to protect our youth. It is everyone’s responsibility to encourage & empower them to make healthy choices.

National Drug Takeback Day with Wethersfield PD

Access to prescription medications is a major contributor to drug exposures for household members, leading to more than 2 million cases in the United States in 2022.

To protect our community, we have partnered with the Wethersfield Police Department to host the DEA National Drug TakeBack event. During this event, you can drop off all unused, expired, and unneeded medications—no questions asked, no judgments passed. Help keep your home safe by removing these potential poisons.

Summer 2024

Summer Youth Employment and Learning Program Ready

Applications are open starting 02.23.2024! Ready for an incredible 6-week, paid summer experience?

The Summer Youth Employment and Learning Program (SYELP) is a youth employment program, connecting Connecticut youth living in the North Central Region between the ages of 14 and 24 with career exploration opportunities and paid work experience each summer.

Participants have the opportunity to explore their interests and career pathways, develop workplace skills, and engage in learning experiences that help in developing their social, civic, and leadership skills. By participating in structured project- and work-based opportunities, Connecticut youth are better prepared for careers of the future.
