Bristol Eliminating Substance Use Together

April is Alcohol Awareness Month 🗓️

Did you know?

Even one night of drinking can impact your brain, body, and the choices you make. And long-term use? That can seriously affect your heart, liver, brain, and immune system.

🧠Knowledge is power. Stay informed, stay healthy!

Empowering youth, strengthening communities 💜

BEST had a wonderful time at the Mental Health Advocates Club Fair, spreading awareness about substance use prevention and mental wellbeing.

Together we can build a healthier future!!

BEST collected these v**es from around our city to ensure they’re properly disposed of! 🚮

If you have any v**es that need disposing of, stay tuned! We are in the process of creating a monthly traveling v**e disposal setup. Details coming soon!

Reasons why communication helps:

- Fears shared are more likely to diminish.

- The first step in encouraging a person with thoughts of su***de to live comes from talking about those feelings.

- A simple inquiry about whether or not the person is intending to end their life can start the conversation.
