Strengthening Families: The Penn State Prosper Program's Fight Against Opioid Abuse

Prevention is the key to fighting the opioid crisis, and Penn State Prosper Program Carbon County is doing an excellent job of providing families with the tools they need to prevent drug use and build strong family communication.
Imagine a community where families come together over a meal, learn how to communicate better, and arm themselves with the knowledge to prevent drug use. That's exactly what's happening in Carbon County, thanks to the Penn State Prosper Program. In this episode of the Battling Opioids podcast, Mindy Graver, a family food health educator at Penn State Extension, sheds light on this innovative initiative.
The PROSPER Project isn't just another program; it's a lifeline for parents, families, and students, especially those in 5th and 6th grade.

What's more, they offer free meals and childcare to make it easier for families to participate.
Prevention is key, and Penn State Prosper Program is showing that with the right tools and support, communities can turn the tide against the opioid crisis. Tune in to hear how this program is empowering families and building a stronger, healthier community.
