Steering Committee

A group of community members, partners, and stakeholders who have joined RAYSAC to actively participate in community prevention efforts. We meet on the second Thursday of every month at 12pm, with virtual meeting options available.

Youth Membership Meetings

RAYSAC encourages teens to take a stake in their own health and wellness, and our programs all include youth input and participation where applicable.
