We also present our ?RIZE Up! Live Drug-Free.? iRIZE presentation and Power Collective Opioid and Fentanyl Prevention presentation to high schools and to teens and their parents at houses of worship and community centers. This presentation focuses on the iRIZE program philosophy and is sometimes delivered in partnership with local community resource providers, local law enforcement and national law enforcement. These presentations are provided free of charge and is funded by specified donations and grants received by RIZE Prevention. Access to our CCFC resource tool is given to everyone who attends, as well as to the entire Upstate community. We also launched a new workshop designed to educate parents about the teenage brain, effects of substance use on the developing brain, and teaching the principles and skills of parental co-regulation. The total number of attendees for these presentations was approximately 2,750 people.
