CLEAN SCENE NETWORK FOR YOUTH CORE VALUES

​

AWARENESS AND COGNITION

We provide relevant, comprehensive information regarding drugs,  use and addiction to youth, families, educators and the public.  We also offer cognitive training to further support  understanding and recognition of these issues, as well as the ability to address them  effectively in the course of pursuing  rewarding lives.

 

INCLUSION AND UNDERSTANDING

Our staff and volunteers strive to foster an environment of acceptance, understanding and trust to ensure youth from all economic, cultural,  social and personal backgrounds have access to the resources, supports and opportunities  they need  to build  and  maintain healthy, drug free lives.

 

ACCOUNTABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY

Accountability fosters  the growth of self-esteem, trust  and  recognition  - and is key to building respect for ourselves and others.  Our staff  and  volunteers  demonstrate  these values by remaining attentive and accessible to the youth we serve.  Accountability is  practiced by  ensuring that expectations between parties  remain clear and are  consistently met.

​

OPPORTUNITY AND COGNITION

We advocate for youth,  working with families,  educators, justice  and  communities  and in partnership with public and private  sectors  to  create and deliver programming, tools and opportunities  designed to reduce youth drug use and to minimize the impact of “drug culture” on youth and their communities.

​

EMPOWERMENT AND FREEDOM

Youth’s need to explore and challenge the world they live in is natural and necessary.  With regard to  drugs and related criminality, each exploration has the potential for addiction and fatality.  Guidance and support  are critical to ensure the development of strength and  skills  to make informed  choices in  these  areas  of life  and  become responsible individuals of their own free will—drug and crime free.
