Objective 2.1: By 10/30/20, All In will record a 2% increase in the perception of harm of alcohol use and reduce by 2% the ease of alcohol access among young people surveyed as measured by the Missouri Student Survey and by focus group interviews. Objective 2.2: By 10/30/20 All In will show a 2% increase in the perception of harm of marijuana misuse and reduce by 2% the ease of access reported by young people as measured by the Missouri Student Survey and by focus group interviews.

Throughout these strategies, Clayton youth will play a key role in leading, promoting and evaluating the group’s progress.
