Prevention-Education and Outreach

The reason why I do this type of work is because I want to be the person I needed while I was growing up, and I want to thank Sun Street Centers for giving me the opportunity to do that. - Jorge
STEPS taught me leadership and communication skills which have helped me make a positive contribution in my community. - Yesenia

Dedicated to building healthy and safe communities, the Prevention Centers provide a variety of services to community members and their families, in order to build awareness and promote action toward resolving community health problems relating to drug and alcohol abuse.
