Power of Me, Power of We is an inspirational training facilitated by Nigel Wrangham and led by our student leaders of TECH (Teens Encouraging Community Health). This event will provide youth with valuable problem-solving skills and empower them to become change-makers in substance abuse prevention and mental health promotion. Participants can also earn volunteer hours for attending.
