To provide student/youth a platform to present their thoughts and perspectives on the use of drugs of abuse, a forum is planned for 6 p.m., Monday, Oct. 11 in the Towns County Recreation Center at Foster Park.

Topics include heroin and the derivative materials, methamphetamine, alcohol and other agents of abuse. Other speakers will address the social harm, legal aspects of control, and school programs associated with this blight upon our community.
The public is invited to join in supporting youth in their presentations.

The forum is supported by Towns County Department of Education, Young Harris College, mayors of Hiawassee and Young Harris, Towns County commissioner and the Towns County sheriff.
