Quincy Partnership for Youth hosted a discussion with Reece Leavitt of the Grant County Health District regarding the display of paraphernalia in local convenience stores and gas stations. We know from the Healthy Youth Survey that 31% of Grant County students believe their community is accepting of substance use. By openly displaying paraphernalia in local stores, we only reinforce that perception. Is this something we should address in Quincy?
Consider coming and working with us to address these issues. We need your perspective, your ideas, and your presence. Please join us to continue making positive moves in the community!
