The Town of Lynnfield, Massachusetts' Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition, known as A Healthy Lynnfield, will work to decrease the misuse of alcohol and electronic vaping product use among youth ages 9 to 20 by implementing a comprehensive mix of evidence based programs that address behaviors that lead to the initiation or progression of use. Over the next five years, AHL will strengthen the prevention capacity and infrastructure at the community level by utilizing coalition building strategies to advance substance abuse prevention efforts. Our focus will be on reducing health disparities among youth that are disproportionately impacted by substance misuse. Through partnership development, training, trauma informed approaches, reducing access, increasing enforcement, increasing perception of harm and shifting norms that support use, A Healthy Lynnfield will leverage resources to effectively reduce adolescent substance misuse.
