Thank you to the Sitka Emblem Club #142 for free ice cream cones to the kids in our program!

In honor of July Drug Awareness Month, the Sitka Emblem Club #142 generously donated free ice cream for youth in our community. What may seem like a simple treat is so much more. It creates opportunities for connection, celebrates healthy choices, and reminds our young people that they are supported by a community that cares.

Partnerships like these help us create positive experiences that strengthen protective factors, encourage substance-free activities, and build a sense of belonging.

Thank you for helping make Sitka a place where every young person feels valued, connected, and empowered to thrive. Together, we are building a healthier future for our community, one scoop at a time. 🍦✨
