Advocacy Day

Advocacy is the public support for, or recommendation of, a particular cause or policy. It is an opportunity to meet with policy makers on key substance use issues facing communities and speak on the importance of prevention. Each year coalitions and their youth advocates as well as community partners join for a day at the Capitol to speak up about the importance of prevention.

Advocacy Day is Scheduled for November 17-18, 2025!
