The mission of Community – The Anti-Drug Coalition (CTAD) is to reduce the use of alcohol, marijuana, and other drugs among youth in Bannockburn, Deerfield, Highland Park, Highwood and Riverwoods.
The Coalition is a volunteer-led organization which strives to build and sustain a safe and healthy community in which youth feel protected, confident and empowered to make drug-free choices. We bring together representatives from schools, parents, youth, government, healthcare, faith, law enforcement, local businesses and youth-serving organizations to help make the drug-free choice the easy choice.
PARENTS ARE KEY
Did you Know?
Two-thirds of youth ages 13-17 say losing their parents’ respect is one of the main reasons they don’t smoke marijuana or use other drugs.
ONGOING CONVERSATION
Remember
Talking with your kids about drugs and alcohol is not a one-time conversation. It’s an ongoing discussion with your child that changes as they mature.
It's not one 60-minute conversation.
It's 60 one-minute conversations.
TAKE ACTION
Be Prepared
It is never too early to talk to your kids about drugs and alcohol.
