Newsymom.com Founder and Executive Director, Michaela Madison, is a proud member of the Tuscarawas County Anti-Drug Coalition.

The Tuscarawas County Anti-Drug Coalition is comprised of volunteer members from local organizations and individuals throughout Tuscarawas County. Members hold the common goal of reducing substance use among Tuscarawas County youth.

The coalition seeks to create a healthier, drug-free community through the implementation of effective prevention strategies. The coalition is committed to providing information and community education, supporting youth-led prevention efforts, challenging community norms that might be favorable to youth substance use, decreasing youth access and availability of substances and changing policies that will reduce youth usage of alcohol, tobacco, prescription medication and other drugs.

On the first Friday of every month, Michaela attends these board meetings where she participates in conversation, activism, and assists in notifying the community of the work of the organization.
