YOP

YOP is an educational program for youth cited for violating alcohol laws. It strives to equip participants with the skills necessary to navigate a culture where a party atmosphere is often the norm. Ultimately, we want participants to make safe and responsible choices and be able to handle potentially dangerous situations.
