Mayor's Task Force on Youth Alcohol & Drug Use
The Mayor's Task Force on Youth Alcohol & Drug Use seeks to raise community awareness about local youth substance use and to make recommendations for community interventions to reduce youth use.
As the mission of the Mayor's Task Force on Youth Alcohol & Drug Use indicates, members are "advocates for and with youth, committed to creating a community where our youth can lead healthy lives free of alcohol and drug use."
The board consists of local residents, appointed by the Mayor and approved by the City Council. There are no term limits. Members do not receive monetary compensation.
The Mayor's Task Force maintains an active website to keep community members updated about its work. The website also contains resources for parents/community members and information on the efforts of other local groups working to reduce youth drug and alcohol use.
