Families can support prevention of substance abuse by participating in the Annual Red Ribbon events and online Red Ribbon Challenges during the month of October that feature health-oriented challenges each week on InnerActAlliance.org for children to complete with family and friends.

RR Challenge Week 3 (October 14-20) sponsor, Florida Dairy Farmers, encourages everyone to eat smart, stay active, and practice positive self-care for a Healthy Mind & Healthy Body! Suggested activities for this week include trying different exercises, meals, and snacks. Try calming mind & body by practicing Yoga stretches and poses. Energize yourself with a cold glass of milk or make a yummy milkshake to build strong bones. Practice for the Red Ribbon Run by walking or running with your family, friends, and classmates. Most of all, be a good listener and good friend to support someone who may be dealing with a problem or experiencing sadness. We are all in this together!  

Everyone is invited to “Run the World” at the Red Ribbon Run on Saturday morning, October 26 at Lake Mirror in Lakeland. Students in grades K-8 can pre-register FREE before 10/26/24 at InnerActAlliance.org to participate in the Kids Fun Run ($5 fee on event day) – Adults pay $5 to run/walk with their children in the Family Fun Run.

Project Homecoming Student Shopping Day Cancelled for October 12

 

We hope everyone is safe in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton. As many students and families are dealing with storm clean-up and Lakeland Square Mall is still without power at this time, a decision has been made to postpone the previously scheduled Project Homecoming Student Shopping Day this Saturday, October 12 at the Project Prom Store. Any updates about rescheduling the shopping day will be posted here and on our agency’s social media pages in the coming days.

Thank you for understanding!  

Weather Watch vs. Weather Warning

 

With Hurricane Milton forging a path towards Florida's Gulf Coast, we are all watching weather forecasts and making preparations for severe weather under hurricane warning conditions.

Do you ever get confused about the difference between a weather watch or a weather warning? Let's use Florida's official state pie, key lime, to illustrate the difference. 

WATCH - all the ingredients are here, key lime pie is likely

WARNING - key lime pie is here & coming to a table near you

Now who else wishes they had bought a key lime pie when they were out shopping for hurricane snacks and supplies? 💚 

☔ Praying that everyone will be safe!☔

Join Us for Week 2 of IAA’s Red Ribbon Challenges!

Families can support prevention of substance abuse by participating in the Annual Red Ribbon Campaign events and online Red Ribbon Challenges during the month of  October that feature different health-oriented challenge activities each week on InnerActAlliance.org for children to complete with family and friends.

RR Challenge Week 2 (October 7-13) sponsor, Regal Lakeland, encourages Kindness & Tolerance and urges us to look beyond differences to appreciate the person. Suggested activities for this week include participating in a kindness circle, finding opportunities to do a random act of kindness for someone, offering a helping hand at home or school, and researching or playing an international sport.

With schools closed the next few days for Hurricane Milton, why not complete one of the challenges as a family – weather conditions and safety in mind, of course!

Everyone is invited to “Run the World” at the Red Ribbon Run on Saturday morning, October 26 at Lake Mirror in Lakeland. Students in grades K-8 can pre-register FREE before 10/26/24 at InnerActAlliance.org to participate in the Kids Fun Run ($5 fee on event day) – Adults pay $5 to run/walk with their children in the Family Fun Run.

 
Kindness starts with YOU!
