SCC focuses on prevention, education, and community connection. We believe that informed, supported communities are better equipped to prevent substance misuse and promote mental wellness before challenges escalate.

SCC serves youth, parents, caregivers, educators, and community members across McLean and surrounding areas, meeting people where they are and responding to evolving community needs.
SCC takes a proactive, prevention-focused approach to mental wellness and substance misuse. We combine expert-informed programming, community education, and collaboration to create meaningful, accessible opportunities for learning and connection.
A key strength of SCC is our Mental Health Committee, a group of local mental health professionals who
✓ Advise SCC on program development and community needs
✓ Support best practices in mental health and prevention education
✓ Provide program content, facilitation, and expertise pro bono for community events
This collaboration allows SCC to offer high-quality programming while keeping events accessible to the community.
