Wood County Prevention Coalition Resource Guide 2017
Greetings!
Welcome to the latest edition of the Wood County Prevention Coalition Resource Guide! We continue to strive to create a concise, cumulative and informative listing of the diverse prevention programs offered throughout Wood County. While we have worked diligently to have a complete listing of prevention programs, we recognize that this guide is a work in progress. It is our hope that additional prevention programs will be added as they are developed and/or identified. If you have any questions or comments about this guide, please e-mail Milan Karna with the Wood County Prevention Coalition at [email protected], or Greg Van Vorhis at the Wood County Educational Service Center (WCESC) at [email protected] Remember that you also can view the resource guide, and download it online at www.wcprevention.org. You can also view a list of the coalition’s sector leaders at http://wcprevention.org/?page_id=59 We hope you find this guide informative and helpful in identifying prevention programs for youth, families, and community members!
Sincerely, The Wood County Prevention Coalition Officers Kyle Clark, Program Director, Wood County Prevention Coalition Milan Karna, Program Coordinator, Wood County Prevention Coalition Chief Tony Hetrick, Coalition President, Bowling Green Police Division Francesca Leass, Coalition Vice-President, Children’s Resource Center Jennifer Campos, Coalition Secretary, Wood County Health District
