The holiday season is here and this is your friendly reminder to stay safe, make smart choices, and avoid temptations. Driving under the influence puts lives at risk, and every safe decision helps protect friends, family, and our community.🚫🚗

Let’s look out for each other and always plan for a sober ride so we can all enjoy the holiday festivities with our loved ones. If you or someone you know is struggling with substance use, MHA is here to help.
