WE
ARE teens and young adults (and some "old" adults)
who are concerned about the dangerous levels of underage and
binge drinking and the tragedies that we see happening in
our Ventura County communities because of alcohol. 
WE
SEE that our culture accepts, allows, encourages,
and often expects underage and binge drinking.
WE
FEEL that blaming youth doesn't help and scare tactics
don't work.
WE
BELIEVE that alcohol problems are community issues
and that to change these problems we need to change our community
environments.
WE
WANT our community to be a safe, positive and healthy
place for youth.
WE
WORK in collaboration with our schools, youth groups,
community coalitions, law enforcement, City and County governments
and concened teens and parents to promote change.

WE
NEED you to help make a difference!
