Shine Coalition is Somers’ Local Prevention Council, a volunteer-led group that brings together neighbors from every corner of our town. When young people struggle with alcohol or drugs, it affects our entire community. 

We are parents, students, business owners, educators, health providers, youth-serving groups, law enforcement, civic groups, and more. We believe that supporting youth health isn’t someone else’s responsibility – it is a commitment we all share.

Our approach focuses on current challenges our youth face today, not yesterday’s problems. We monitor trends, track data, and adapt our strategies because what works in prevention keeps evolving.

Whether you have lived in Somers for decades or just moved to town, your voice matters in building a unified response that keeps Somers strong and our young people healthy.
