November is just around the corner, and weโ€™re inviting Monroe County families to join the Small Talks Challenge!
Throughout November, families will receive 15 conversation starters to help parents and caregivers talk with their kids about making safe, healthy choices.
Small Talks encouragers families to start talking about alcohol and other substance use early and often. These conversations donโ€™t have to be big or complicated. Even small, everyday talks can make a difference.
Complete the challenge and earn a prize of family-pack (4) theater tickets to Sparta Cinema 6!
๐Ÿ”—Sign up today through this link: https://mailchi.mp/b7321c027352/small-talks-challenge or by scanning the QR code. Your first prompt will arrive November 1!
