Youth Advisory Council approves motion to pursue partnership with Blue Zones to address substance abuse
Summary
A motion to work with the Blue Zones initiative on substance-abuse prevention was made, seconded and granted during the meeting; council directed staff to pursue collaboration and include the initiative on future agendas.
During board ideas and comments, a commissioner moved that the Youth Advisory Council work with the Blue Zones initiative to impact substance abuse in Riverside County. The motion was seconded and the chair recorded the motion as granted during the meeting.
The motion establishes a direction for council staff and members to explore a partnership with Blue Zones, an organization focused on community wellness and preventative health measures. The transcript does not record a formal roll-call vote or a detailed implementation plan; council members listed the Blue Zones initiative as an item for future meetings and follow-up.
Next steps: council staff and relevant commissioners are expected to bring details on potential collaboration — scope, partners, and any required budget or approvals — to a future meeting where the council can discuss implementation and timelines.
