Project Opportunity: Positive Community Norms
We will meet on Thursday 2/29 at 5:30 PM at City Hall Conference Room. If you have any questions or need more information please email lacenterunited@gmail.com or call 360-213-8385..
Positive Community Norms are based on “the Science of the Positive,” the study of how positive factors impacts culture and experience. Positive Community Norms closes the gap between what we believe to be true and what is actually true.
PCN are an approach that promotes protective factors, increases healthy norms, and changes community cultures on issues including substance use, traffic safety, child maltreatment, youth suicide, and more. PCN can help you design and implement powerful communications campaigns that shift perceptions, attitudes and behaviors to achieve authentic community transformation.

Our Kids Are Living in a Different Digital World
Do you know what a Zynbabwe is? Or an upper-decky lip pillow? OK, here’s an easier one — how about just Zyn?
