Welcome to our new Youth Coordinator, Savanah Strahan!
A message from Savanah:
Hi everyone!
My name is Savanah Strahan, and I am the new Youth Coordinator for AC4C. Here are some personal and professional facts about me:
I completed my Bachelor of Science degree at Central Michigan University in Public Health Education with a minor in Substance Use Disorders.
One of my past experiences in the field of prevention, was interning for my university’s collegiate recovery program. There I learned how to conduct assessments, develop educational materials, present to students on various substances, and collaborate with coalitions.
Currently, I work for YSS as the Specialized Prevention Services Coordinator in Substance Use. This February will be my one-year anniversary with this organization. I am also part of the Story County Prevention Policy Board Coalition.
My partner, Kyle, and I currently live in Story County but are originally from Michigan. We moved to Iowa for Kyle to complete his masters and PhD in Agriculture Meteorology at Iowa State University.
During my spare time, I enjoy reading, yoga, and cooking.
I am excited to start this position and be more involved with the youth!
