	On July 18th, students from Estacada High School and West Linn High School visited the Board of County Commissioners to show the board a presentation on how they choose to stay above the influence of drugs and alcohol. Their work is part of the Above the Influence program, a national drug and alcohol prevention effort that works to empower students to choose their own path to staying drug and alcohol free. Oregon Partnership, a non-profit organization that specializes in helping end drug abuse among youth in our State helped the students plan and develop their own video presentations. A grant from Clackamas County’s Division of Children, Youth, and Families helped make these programs possible.
