HOPE Meeting Summary

[Julie Hook]

Dear HOPE Coalition- 

Attached you'll find the summary of last night's meeting, along with the agenda we followed, and a couple of handouts I promised to share.  In addition, you'll find the link to a really cool inspirational video we watched, and to the website where you can encourage any high school aged student you know to consider signing up for Teen Institute- a leadership camp hosted by PreventEd this November.  Our coalition provides a full scholarship to anyone who wants to attend from Franklin County!  Please check it out and share. 

Several coalition members were able to join us today for the meeting with the Commissioners where we submitted our 2026 budget request for a portion of next year's opioid settlement dollars.  Thank you all who were able to make it!  I really think it made a huge difference for the Commissioners to see the support we get from our community!

Be on the lookout for an opportunity to sign up to help at some upcoming events in October.  It's a great way to volunteer your time and to learn more about HOPE and how we connect with our community.
