What does PARTY mean to you? To us, it means "Prevent Alcohol & Risk Related Trauma in Youth". We are a youth-focused, non-profit organization investing in the future of our community - youth - and we are seeking new volunteers to help with the program. We need people who strongly believe that prevention is the best treatment when it comes to dealing with injury & trauma, and who agree that we can prevent injury and trauma by offering youth genuine life-skills training and opportunities for meaningful participation. If this sounds like you and you are interested in building your strengths and abilities and improving your job prospects, come help lead the upcoming generation of our community toward success in their real world of risk management.


VOLUNTEERS CAN HELP IN SEVERAL WAYS:

set up classrooms & equipment / set up and run audio visual equipment / plan, prepare, or take down displays / give out appropriate promotional materials / lead, supervise, and act as role model for students / help shut down operations at the end of the day / a range of other tasks and responsibilities.

What is P.A.R.T.Y. about? Risk. Taking risks is a part of life, but myths and misinformation can change what risk means. Taking risks can have unexpected consequences affecting not only the person making the choice, but also so many others, for the rest of everyone’s life. P.A.R.T.Y. is an acronym for Prevent Alcohol & Risk Related Trauma in Youth. We are an injury prevention program aimed at educating youth in our community about taking SMARTRISK.
