Kansas high school students and others will be discussing the important work they are doing to reduce substance use, promote positive mental health and create change in their schools and communities.

Kansas education administrators, teachers, students, PTO members, etc., are welcome to participate in the webinar. It is an initiative of United to Transform, a targeted statewide project intended to identify ways to reduce the toll substance use disorders takes on the lives of Kansans.
