The Care To Lock campaign is a collaborative effort between Atlantic Prevention Resources (APR) and Cape Assist, focusing on the crucial role of adults in preventing youth access to potentially harmful substances such as cannabis, alcohol, or misuse of Rx medications. This initiative is particularly timely and significant in New Jersey, where recent legalization efforts have shifted public perception around marijuana use.
The campaign emphasizes secure storage of these substances and promotes open dialogues on substance misuse prevention, aiming to protect young people from the adverse effects associated with early substance exposure
