Greetings Fellow Prevention Professionals,

I am reaching out today curious if anyone knows who may be a good resource or consultant when looking at perceptions of enforcment.

We see in our community survey and HYS data that adults have mixed opinions about the effectiveness of law enforcment when responding to parties/gatherings and our youth do not expect to get caught if they used cannabis or alcohol. 

This is a very interesting time with all things "law and enforcment". We also know as prevention professionals, thanks to the Social Development Strategy, that clear standards of behavior are so important. 

I am looking for someone who can help us navigate the multiple contexts of this issue (families, peer-peer, and community - We have school covered). I need the person to me well versed on the current conditions with state vs blake and house bill 1310. 

Many thanks,

Wa'Lynn Klein
