Prevention Works- Healthy Region 6

Bringing awareness to Conway, Faulkner,Johnson, Perry, Pope, and Yell Counties about Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drug Prevention

What We Do:
Our prevention department works to create conditions for individuals, families, and communities where "bad" things are less likely to happen. Prevention is something that individuals must do on a daily basis in order to create conditions where bad things don't occur just like brushing your teeth prevents you from getting cavities. With regard to drug prevention, we create norms and

policies to eliminate underage drinking or illegal drug abuse. Our Prevention programs are designed to do the following:
-Create measurable changes in risk and/or protective factors of an identified target population
-Use developmentally appropriate strategies (evidence-based) to impact risk factors or enhance protective factors
-Support the work of anti-drug coalitions, community and neighborhood organizations, institutions, and citizens to address prevention at the community level

Prevention is more than saying “no.”
Prevention is helping young people feel connected, supported, and empowered to make healthy choices.

Protective factors like positive adult relationships, school involvement, mental wellness, and healthy activities all play a role in reducing substance misuse and improving overall well-being.

During National Prevention Week, we celebrate the individuals, schools, coalitions, organizations, and families working every day to strengthen our communities. 💪

🌟 It’s National Prevention Week! 🌟

This week, we join communities across the country in recognizing the power of prevention and the importance of creating healthy, safe, and supportive environments for youth, families, and communities.

Prevention works — and it starts with education, connection, and community involvement. Whether it’s substance misuse prevention, mental health promotion, or building protective factors for youth, every positive action matters.

Together, we can help create brighter futures for everyone. 💙

National Prevention Week is a nationwide effort to raise awareness about substance misuse prevention and mental health promotion.
