MARTHA’S VINEYARD – The MV Community Services Island Wide Youth Collaborative is starting a Parent Connection group for parents and guardians of students from grades 7-12 to discuss substance use and vaping in their families.
“Knowledge is key to understanding the way substances affect teens. If your child is using substances or at-risk, join this group to connect to other parents, share experiences and explore resources available in our community,” said Susan Mercier, Program Director of the Island Wide Youth Collaborative in a statement.
The group is managed by MV Community Services Recovery Coach Rebecca Jamieson and funded by the all-Island Boards of Health.
The MVCS is an organization dedicated to helping Martha’s Vineyard residents and families live their healthiest lives possible.
The Parent Connection peer-to-peer group will meet every other Wednesday from 6 to 7 pm at the Island Wide Youth Collaborative in Oak Bluffs starting January 15.
