Local groups are hoping to prevent substance abuse with a FREE Town Hall Meeting at Hingham Town Hall on May 7 at 6:30 PM. The event is open to all parents, youth, business leaders, law enforcement officials, religious leaders, school administrators and staff from local communities. The evening will feature young people from local communities and author, Jenifer Lippincott.
The meeting is sponsored by South Shore FACTS (Families, Adolescents and Communities Together against Substances), a regional coalition of groups from Hingham, Cohasset, Hull, Scituate, Duxbury, Carver, and Norwell. South Shore FACTS was started through South Shore Hospital’s Youth Health Connection with program support from SADD (Students Against Destructive Decisions) and funding from the Plymouth County District Attorney’s Office.
