Consultation has concluded
The Blue Mountains Local Drug Action Team (LDAT) has received funding to develop a peer education program by young people, for young people.

We are looking for young people aged 12 – 18 years old who are:
Motivated and confident
Enjoy working as part of a team
Creative thinkers
Enjoy helping others, and
Keen to participate and able to commit to project requirements
Note: Participants should have no history of substance abuse.
Commitment:
A two-day workshop (3 and 4 April, 2019) to learn, develop and design the program
Ability to commit time after the program development (until September 2019) to deliver the program. Depending on what is developed, this could be online or face-to-face (e.g. at events or schools). A commitment of at least 1 event and/or online delivery is required.
If you are interested in participating in this program or would like to know more please contact Kristy Lenon – Community Development Officer: Young People on (02) 4780 5680 or klenon@bmcc.nsw.gov.au.
