Ignite Youth Coalition

Ignite Youth Coalition is a youth-led branch of the Haddam-Killingworth Youth & Family Services Community Coalition. It is composed of students in grades 9–12 who work on alcohol and drug prevention and other issues affecting young people. The coalition provides students with a platform to identify local needs, promote positive mental health, and address substance abuse through projects, events, and prevention initiatives.

Ignite Youth Coalition meets weekly during school to plan and carry out their initiatives. Members meet on Mondays during lunch in room A117 to plan, create, and have fun.

Activities include public service announcements, informative community events, community service, and networking opportunities. They also create prevention resources and public service announcements on topics like substance use, mental health, vaping, alcohol, marijuana, and prescription drug misuse.

The coalition prioritizes collaboration, compassion, and empowerment as its core values. Its mission is to uplift and guide youth by connecting them to various resources, ensuring they feel seen and supported in their journeys.

A specific feature offered is Substance-Free Athletics (SFA), which gives high school athletes, coaches, and parents science-based information on substance use, sports, and local school policies. This helps them make informed decisions and have more productive conversations.

The coalition provides prevention resources that include facts, statistics, and practical tips to help young people make healthy choices, resist pressure, and prevent alcohol and drug use. These resources are designed to support informed conversations at home, in school, and throughout the community.
