Rise Up! Glendale

Rise Up! Glendale began in October of 2020, when it was discovered that Glendale had no localized substance abuse prevention efforts in place.

Our coalition works with law enforcement, healthcare, education and various other community-based organizations and volunteers to reduce the demand for drugs through several methods such as websites and social media awareness, education campaigns, drug take-back events, Naloxone and Deterra drug disposal kit distribution, community surveys, assessment of community needs and in-school resiliency and prevention education, specifically tailored to meet the needs of our community.
