WCPC Receives First Ever Utah Coalition Award!

Craig PoVey, Director of Substance Abuse Prevention for the Utah Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health, presented the Washington County Prevention Coalition (WCPC) with an award in excellence at the Utah Fall Substance Abuse conference in September. Director PoVey said that this is the first time the award has ever been given to a coalition, but said the decision was obvious as he praised the WCPC for all of the collaboration they have created in the community with their prevention efforts, and all of the things they have done to make their county a safer, healthier place. Logan Reid, Chair of the WCPC, who accepted the award on behalf of the coalition, said that the success of the WCPC was a result of not just one person, but of all of the coalition members who have given so much of their time and efforts to the mission of the WCPC.
