We Are Here to Help!
Substance Use Prevention Resources
for Educators
Educators and mentors have a special place in our hearts for the role you play in the lives of youth all around us. Your dedication and presence helps shape them in a way nobody else can. We’ve put this resource page together for you. We wanted to provide you an easy-to-use resource page full of fun, kid friendly prevention resources. If you see something we’re missing, let us know by sending an email to info@breakwaterwi.org.
If it doesn’t exist, we will work to create it.
