Who We Are
For over 30 years, the Burlington Healthy Community Coalition (BHCC) has brought together adults and youth for positive change. The current mission of the BHCC is to support and promote healthy environments and opportunities for all youth to gain skills and receive positive recognition in order to prevent and reduce youth substance use. The BHCC is a partnership of schools, families, and community members representing the diversity of the broader Burlington area. We currently meet every other month on the fourth Tuesday online and at the Burlington Public Library in a hybrid format and everyone is welcome!

However, if you ask a teenager, or even some adults, how many students use marijuana and prescription drugs, they are likely to say “everyone.”
