Youth to Youth at Rochester Middle School Youth 2 Youth is a school based, after school activity that works to educate students, parents and our community as a whole of the risk of underage drug and alcohol use. The students are provided the information needed to develop an understanding of the problem and then communicate this knowledge back to their peers and adults.

Youth who participate in this

program become informed, develop skills and are empowered to make change. Examples of how these youth get out their messages are sticker shock, Red Ribbon Week activities, Samantha Skunk (educating elementary students on medicine safety), film festival, educational messages for teens and parents, PSA’s and community events, like the Christmas Parade.
