A t UMADAOP Lorain, the Education and Prevention program stands as a cornerstone in the mission to equip youth with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate life's challenges, particularly those related to substance abuse. By focusing on education and prevention efforts early on, UMADAOP Lorain aims to lay a foundation for a healthier and drug-free future for the next generation.
