Top Risk Factors Facing Baraga County Youth Identified

What are the top risk factors facing youth in Baraga County?

Local residents had their say by completing the Baraga County Communities That Care Youth Survey.

The top risk factors were identified as Low Perceived Risk of Drug Use and Depressive Symptoms.

Baraga County CTC says their next steps will be to assess the resources already available in the community and see where they can help strengthen where they are not.

They are asking residents who know of resources in the area that address those risk factors to contact Baraga County CTC with that information.

Contact information can be found on their website, http://baragacountyctc.org/
