Ever wondered how we choose which snacks to distribute? Here are some of the things we consider:

⭐ What snacks do youth want? This is the most important!
✔️ What snacks are filling and nutritious?
✔️ What snacks are flexible for many dietary needs?
✔️ What snacks are easy to chew?
✔️ What snacks have a long shelf life?

Everyone has different preferences and tastes. Many youths have allergies and dental health concerns. Having a variety of options allows youth to choose what they actually want to eat!

Wrap up your summer with an Opioid Overdose Prevention and Response training! We have two free upcoming opportunities:
