Rockwood Drug-Free Coalition Week
October 1, 2014
This week begins Rockwood’s fifth annual Drug-Free Coalition week.
The committee celebrates their recognition of Missouri’s 2013 Coalition of the Year along with the announcement of funding produced by the Office of National Drug Control Policy. This funding is the start of a second five year cycle. In 2009, a ten year funding program began which will reward Rockwood’s Coalition with a total of $1,250,000.
The committee has and will continue to use the money to invest “wisely in prevention programming, staffing and advocacy initiatives that help protect youth,” said Rockwood Drug-Free Coalition Director Renee Heney.
The next coalition meeting will be at LaSalle Springs Middle School Library on Oct. 9 at 3:45 pm until 5:15 pm.

The buttons are passed down to the new STL Spark executive board members each year and they are encouraged to place them on their backpacks to help raise awareness about human trafficking. My sister, [Class of 2020 alumni] Grace Kirtley, started STL Spark when she was in high school and she would have people carry it on after she graduated, Mary said. Last year I got invited to join the board again with my sister, senior Patty Kirtley, and so weve been working on carrying her legacy a bit. Its become somewhat of a family project.](https://lancerfeed.press/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/IMG_5696-e1700061260167-600x400.jpg)
