Celebrate efforts to protect Youth Health in our community! Now in its 8th year, the Healthy Teens Youth Health Awards honor the individuals and organizations who do so much to protect the health of our youth and empower them to make healthier choices. We will also be celebrating our *brand new* cohort of Teen Health Educators in completing their first year on the program, as well as saying thank you and good luck to our graduating team of seniors.   Please consider donating $50 (in addition to your ticket purchase) to allow one Teen Health Educator and their parent to attend for free. Light appetizers and drinks will be served.
