A new initiative

Our mission

Prevention that actually reaches young people — real content, real support, free resources.

Our community

Students, families, counselors, and local partners across Forsyth County and beyond.

Our promise

Help before crisis. No fear tactics, no shame, no cost — ever.

Prevention often arrives as a lecture.
Young people scroll past it.

We close that gap — in the language and on the platforms young people actually use.

Our roots

Connected to FCDAC

Pulse of Prevention grew out of youth involvement with the Forsyth County Drug Awareness Council — a community coalition working on substance-use awareness in Forsyth County, Georgia, connecting our work to experienced counselors and prevention professionals.

I

Youth create the content and lead the campaigns.

II

Evidence-based, SAMHSA-aligned — never fear-based.

III

We work alongside schools and counselors, not instead of them.
