IAA Out & About in Our Community

 


InnerAct Alliance's prevention team enjoys participating in special events to meet community members and share how our agency's free prevention education programs/services can positively impact the Lakeland and Polk County areas.

Last week, our team was busy participating in many wonderful Spring events. IAA's Charlie and Amy joined the fun at the Communities Outreach Expo on Friday morning, April 4 in Auburndale to offer helpful information and fun giveaways for participants. The previous day, our humane educator Michelle took part in the PACE Family Resource Fair and enjoyed connecting with children and families.👪

It was also a busy Saturday, April 5 with executive director Angie Ellison and staff Susan and Cindy on hand for the Spring Polk Together Conference to offer parents/adults an opportunity to tour our Own The Upside Trailer and learn about common items found in a typical teen's bedroom that may signal potential involvement in drugs and other risky behaviors. Other staff assisted UthMpact teens for the final student shopping day at the Project Prom Store in Lakeland Square Mall to help teens find fabulous formal wear at no cost when they sign a pledge to celebrate prom and graduation alcohol and substance-free.👗🤵 Finally, Charlie and Cindy were happy to join Heartland for Children at Crystal Lake Elementary's Annual Spring Fling and Easter Egg Hunt!🥚🐰

Feel free to invite the IAA Outreach Team to your upcoming community event to share prevention tools and spread awareness for safer, healthier communities. Call for information (863) 802-0777.
