Attention Angelina County high school juniors! Applications for the Drug-Free All Star program are now available.

All current high school juniors that are passionate about being drug, alcohol and tobacco-free are eligible for the program. The application can be accessed on The Coalition’s website at www.angelinacoalition.org/youth. The deadline for applications is Tuesday, May 31st.
