My daughter-in-law is the Director of the Center for Prevention Services and is seeking pledges to help combat substance abuse and related issues. She has issued a call for help in this important area and if anyone wishes to make a pledge, please follow the Rally below. It's for a great cause and Gerry and I fully support it.

Rally for Substance Abuse Awareness Month!
Since
its inception in 1971, the Center for Prevention Services (CPS) has
continued to respond to its primary mission of preventing substance
abuse and related behavioral and medical health issues.
We
know that preventing disease before it starts is critical to helping
people live longer, healthier lives and keeping health care costs down.
Poor diet, physical inactivity, tobacco use, and alcohol misuse are just
some of the challenges we face. We also know that many of the strongest
predictors of health and well-being fall outside of the health care
setting. Our housing, transportation, education, workplaces, and
environment are major elements that impact physical and mental health.
This is why CPS works to weave prevention into the fabric of our
communities and into everyday life.
From 09/01 - 11/01/2013, your donations will be designated for Substance Abuse Awareness month initiatives (unless otherwise noted by donor.)
Thank you for contributing to our often overlooked cause!
