PBCSAC Seeks Student Leaders

The Palm Beach County Substance Awareness Coalition is seeking local middle school and high school students who are interested in becoming active members of the Teen Coalition in Action (TCIA). These responsible, goal-driven teens will give youth a voice in the community on preventing the abuse of alcohol and other drugs by developing youth-driven community projects.

PBCSAC staff will partner with Palm Beach County schools to conduct meetings, assist youth in strategic planning and help with the execution of their selected substance abuse prevention projects.

All TCIA members must obtain permission from their parents or guardians prior to accepting any service obligations. Up to 15 teens will be selected through an application and interview process. Community service hours are available.

Contact Alexa Lee at (561) 844-5952 or alexalee@pbcsac.org for an application. The application deadline is Aug. 31.
