Mission Statement
Our mission is to educate Weston youth about the dangers of alcohol/drug use and abuse; to train members to become peer leaders; to train members to mentor their peers and younger students by helping them to understand the complex issues of teen and high school life with regard to drugs and alcohol; and to help ADAP educate parents through parent forums.
Membership
