Business Description

Kearney-Holt CAN is a coalition of passionate volunteers working to prevent youth substance use and suicide in the Kearney and Holt communities. Prevention work is about reaching youth long before they are tempted to engage in behaviors that could harm their body, brain, and future.

Using evidence-based approaches and community expertise, we help nurture resilient youth and a safe, supportive community environment. Using approaches like building awareness, education, policy change, and environmental change, we help reduce risk factors and build protective factors like healthy coping skills and connections with trusted adults.

How to Get Involved:

Join us for our coalition meetings every second Thursday of the month (in-person or Zoom, based on public safety). Email Marlo at marlo@16acres.netto be notified of our upcoming meetings.

Attend programs sponsored by CAN. Follow us on Facebook to see our upcoming events.

Contact CAN with any concerns or suggestions you have about youth substance use or youth suicide prevention.

Consider making a donation to support our efforts. We are a 501(c)3 that operates solely on donations and grants.

Take time to talk to your children about the dangers of alcohol and other drugs. Start early and talk often!
