Nexus Care of Beaufort County and the All Aboard Beaufort Coalition are partnering to host another Youth Leadership STAR Program. The program is open to all 6th through 12th graders in Beaufort County.
The STAR program helps students Strive To Achieve Resiliency against alcohol and substance misuse.
The leadership program will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 21 at the St. Helena Branch Library at 6355 Jonathan Francis Sr. Road.
Meetings are held on the third Thursday of every month, excluding December and July, at the Saint Helena Island Library. Each session offers a unique, stand-alone message that provides value on its own, so attendance is encouraged even if not every meeting is possible. While each session builds upon the last, the core message is always accessible to everyone, regardless of prior attendance.
This is an opportunity to make new friends, be creative and learn new leadership skills. The goal of the program is to work together to reduce youth substance misuse and promote resiliency. Supplies and food will be provided.
