We are Clark County STASHA, and this website is for you.

We are a group of youth working to protect our community and our peers from the impacts of substance use. We noticed that most websites about youth substance use prevention are created by adults, so we made this website as a space to better our community and to connect with you, youth to youth. 

​This website is a space where you can ask questions, learn more about substances, find resources, and just get to know STASHA and what we do. Our goal is for you to feel safe and welcome, and hopefully to come away with some extra knowledge. 
We know from research the kinds of negative effects drugs and alcohol can have on young brains (under 25). We want to improve youth access to information about drugs and alcohol.

​
Being a youth can be stressful. Sometimes the media glamorizes substance use as a way to cope, when in reality there are way cheaper, healthier, and more effective ways to handle stress. We want to share the resources and the coping strategies that work for us!
This site includes information to help all youth. Are you here for yourself? We got you. Worried about a family member or friend? We got you. Here for a school project? We're here for it. This is a judgement free zone, and you are welcome here no matter what!

​What is STASHA?

STASHA stands for Strong Teens Against Substance Hazards and Abuse. We are a nonjudgmental and inclusive group of Clark County, WA youth (ages 12-19) preventing youth drug and alcohol use, using our words and in our own way. We noticed that most websites about youth substance use prevention are created by adults, so we made this website as a way to better our community by connecting with you, youth to youth.   ​

We are fighting for a better future for youth in Clark County and beyond!
