Our intended audience is anyone interested in public health topics and youth prevention in East Texas and beyond. We will share the voices of high school seniors in our Drug Free All Star program and share updates of different prevention topics that affect our region. The Coalition is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit in Lufkin, Tx, serving parts of East Texas, intent on keeping the youth of our community away from drugs, alcohol and tobacco. We were established in 1988 by area superintendents who saw drugs as a problem and wanted a county-wide prevention program.

The Drug Free All-Star program now spans four decades at The Coalition and is probably what we're known for most in the public. Abby Baker is coordinator of the program and she speaks with J.P. Heath about:
- Her path to The Coalition and what exactly the Drug-Free All Stars do
- Her motivation in dealing with young people and how things have changed during COVID-19
- Some great examples of young people blossoming and doing big things.
- What events the All Stars cover over the span of a school year
- How she manages to survive being a Longhorn in an office of Aggies
The Coalition is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit in Lufkin, Texas, that serves Angelina County and beyond.
