About the event
We are pleased to invite you to a valuable and informative afternoon on April 29th, where you will gain key insights into the Peterborough Youth Substance Use Prevention (PYSUP) Initiative.
Join fellow community leaders to explore how Peterborough is uniting to create a healthier social environment for our youth, with the goal of preventing and reducing substance use harms. Discover the proven success of the Icelandic Prevention Model internationally and how we are adapting this long-term, community-driven approach right here in Peterborough, supported by funding from the Public Health Agency of Canada.
We are honoured to welcome Jon Sigfusson, Chairman of the Board with Planet Youth (PY), as our special guest, who will share his vision for a brighter future for our youth.
