The Human Services Department and the Lexington Public Schools Physical Education and Wellness Department will be co-sponsoring the first of 2 Community Dialogues, funded by the CHNA 15 grant they received in June 2009.
"Can We Talk", is a dialogue focused on Substance Use and Abuse for youth and their parents in grades 8-12. All community members are welcome to participate in this important community discussion. The dialogue will be held on November 17, 2009 from 7-9 PM at St. Brigid's Church. We hope to see you there!
