Hello everyone and thank you for your contribution in helping Sublette County be a healthy and thriving place to live!
Wow! Since coming on board as the Prevention Coordinator replacing Trisha Scott (since her retirement at the end of August), it has been a busy time in country prevention! It was a privilege to work with Trisha before her retirement and the very best for her as she continues to be active in bringing joy to our community!
I look forward to visiting with you and thank you for encouraging me to grow into this position as I train and get to know you.
The Prevention Coalition, ATODS (Alcohol, Tobacco, Other Drugs) Task Force and the Suicide Prevention task force have worked with partners to bring good to Sublette County coming up the rest of September.
· Two Suicide Awareness Campfire gatherings (Big Piney 8/6 (good job!) and Pinedale 8/13).
· THC Variants education by Ashley Schluck (WY Traffic Safety Resource Prosecutor) 8/25 noon at the Pinedale Library. See program brochure below.
· QPR training at the St. Andrew’s Church by Rev. Bobo 8/9 (robust turnout!), Women’s Advocacy Group 8/12 by Trisha and Mardy, BOCES 8/20 by Trisha and Mardy.
