Youth Coalition

1LIFE is a student-led Northport/East Northport Community Drug and Alcohol Task Force.  We are focused on tackling real-life issues.  We are dedicated to making our Community a healthier, safer place by raising  awareness about Drug and Alcohol use and misuse for underage youth; addressing Environment Concerns; and educating our peers on overall Mental Health.   

We work hard to further our mission to Learn, Inspire, Fulfill and Empower within our community.

If you know a Student, Grades 9 -12 who is interested in joining us, please have them contact us thru the "Join Now" form located on the tab above.  We meet weekly after school for (1) hour.
