Hidden In Plain Sight

Nichols Middle School

This month we were able to have a set up at Nichols Middle School of Hidden in Plain Sight which is a mock teenage bedroom to help parents spot signs of potential substance abuse. Parents learned ways to engage in conversations with their youth if they do sense a potential of substance abuse.

We're so thankful to Principal McLaughlin for having us present!
