The "Community and Youth" of the St. Croix Underage Drinking Coalition. Since the existence has continued to form new partnerships throughout St. Croix County. Through county meetings each community has focused on alcohol and drug free youth activities.

One example is Hudson, Roberts, and New Richmond and their respective communities have formed youth centers for youth from ages 11 through 18 this is done through a partnership of the YMCA and community partners.

The youth center idea came from the success of Hudson Community Action taking the lead and forming "Coffee House Live", this is where youth bands play nearly every Saturday night from 7 - 10pm through out the year. The attendance of "Coffee House Live" has risen to over 100 youth per night attending an alcohol and drug free event.

This year the partnership has expanded through an event of the Coordinated Resource to Meth Committee, to over three counties with participating in Community Forms on Methamphetamines. The coalition had a booth on gateway drugs at each forum.

A goal for the community part of the coalition is to partner with groups on the education of drug use where needed to keep our youth safe.
