How Community Partnerships Strengthen Prevention with Del Whitmore of the Grandview Coalition

In this episode of the Safe Yakima Valley Prevention Connection Podcast, Deputy Fire Chief Del Whitmore shares what makes Grandview a uniquely supportive community and why everyday residents play a crucial role in keeping youth safe. We talk about the realities first responders see concerning substance use, the risks teens face, and how prevention efforts through the Grandview Coalition are helping the community stay ahead of substance-use trends. Whether you're a parent, educator, or community partner, this conversation offers clear insight into how collaboration can protect the next generation and strengthen Grandview’s future. Grandview Coalition meets the third Wednesday of every month. Please reach out to us at safeyakimavalley.org
