The mission of the Influence the Choice - Drug Prevention Alliance for Youth is the prevention and reduction of youth substance abuse within the Issaquah School District service area. The Coalition accomplishes this mission through community resource networking and strategic action planning aimed at changing community norms.
Influence the Choice (ITC) is a local substance abuse prevention alliance working for a healthy, thriving community. It is comprised of a minimum of twelve community sectors: parents, youth, schools, business owners, medical professionals, government, media, faith-based organizations, organizations serving youth, civic or volunteer organizations and law enforcement, all working together to build a healthy, thriving, drug-free community. Facing the Opioid CrisisHelp us spread the word about the importance of disposing of expired, unused or unnecessary opioid prescription drugs.

Hidden In Plain Sight is a parent education exhibit introduced by Influence the Choice with seven partners: The Issaquah Police Department, the Sammamish Police Department, the Issaquah PTSA Council, Friends of Youth, the city of Issaquah Parks & Recreation, the city of Sammamish Parks and Recreation, and Eastside Fire and Rescue. Hidden in Plain Sight has been presented at Liberty High School, Inglewood Middle School, Issaquah High School and Central Washington University - Sammamish. Hundreds of parents have toured the exhibit of a "typical teenager's bedroom" and learned valuable lessons about spotting the signs of drug use or abuse. Thanks to all of our partners and parents who attended this year! If your organization would like to arrange for a Hidden in Plain Sight exhibit, contact Andie Adee (andie@influencethechoice.org) or Katie Moeller (katie@influencethechoice.org).
