Park Hill



 

 

Our Mission Statement

The Park Hill Community Alliance for Youth exists to promote a safe, healthy and drug free environment in our surrounding community!

 

 

Did you know in 2010, the average age Northland youth reported drinking their first alcohol beverage was 12?  That’s 6th grade!!  Over the past two years, prescription drug abuse rose tremendously and businesses began marketing dangerous synthetic drugs, like “K2,” to our youth.  Although many of our youth are resilient, new threats to their health and safety are more frequent than ever before!
