6th Annual AC4C Prevention Conference
This year’s conference theme is Empowering Prevention! The conference will be held again at the Midwest Counterdrug Training Center at Camp Dodge. The day will start in the Rec Hall with Registration, a Resource Fair, and a light breakfast. Our keynote presenter is Melissa Moore!

An expert in engagement and communication, Ms. Moore is always looking for opportunities to take great ideas and move them into tangible actions answering the age-old question…We recognize this is an issue, now what can we do about it?
