Upcoming Events
Through our Healthy Families Programming, Safe Harbor offers preventive programs in our schools and through parent education and community connection events.
Drug Prevention
Drug Prevention utilizes best practices in drug prevention in youth ages 11-12. It is an experiential half-day event with activities that teach youth to make healthy choices and understand the impact of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drugs (ATOD). The interactive event engages field experts and more than 75 community volunteers to teach 6th graders about ATOD (to recognize drugs and their dangers, effects on the body and brain, as well as the impact on peers, family, and the community)
WE NEED VOLUNTEERS! Please sign up to help.
* Please note that Orientation is required for most volunteers March 17th, 6:00-7:30pm
Unravel: Fall Dance Performance & Visual Arts Collaboration
Psychology Today recently noted, “To be human is to carry emotional knots.” Inspired by this, CoSA Dance and CoSA Visual Art collaborated to create Unravel, a performance and exhibition exploring the mental and emotional knots tied by stress, grief, and mental disorders, and how mindfulness and art can untangle them. On December 13 and 14 at 7:00pm, the Coronado Performing Arts Center will showcase original dances and artwork reflecting themes like OCD, ADHD, and self-talk. One key dance, “Love and Armor” by CoSA Dance Director Gina Bolles Sorensen, explores parent-child relationships.
The event includes a student art exhibition focused on mental health practices, in collaboration with Safe Harbor Coronado, local nonprofit supporting community well-being. Join us for an evening of creativity and personal growth.
