Wayland Patch 2/13/12: Youth Are The Key To Success. While at the CADCA (Community Anti Drug Coalitions of America) Conference this week with new Youth Officer Shane Bowles, there were over a hundred and fifty students in attendance who will participate in CADCA's Youth Leadership Initiative this week and then return home to become "change agents" in their community. WaylandCares has a group of "change agents," students that have been instrumental in changing the course of WaylandCares since they attended the CADCA conference in Pheonix Arizona in 2010, and they have been joined by students who attended the Youth to Youth Conference in the summer of 2011. Together they have worked hard on substance-free events like STOMP, 5th Quarter, Open Mic Night, and the very WAYGLO dance. If you are currently a Wayland High student or an 8th grader at Wayland Middle School you can become a "change agent" at WaylandCares. WaylandCares also provides volunteer opportunities for adults interested in becoming "change agents" helping to promote healthy youth decision making. Check their webpage for more information.
