Preventive substance abuse work in educational institutions
Keuruu has entered into a partnership with Ehyt to implement preventive substance abuse work in schools. In addition, visits by experts with personal experience from the Central Finland Welfare Region will be utilised where possible.
Every three years, Keuruu Youth Services designates a specific year as a ‘theme year’ for preventive substance abuse work, during which there is an intensified campaign aimed at young people.
