Citrus County Street Team

The Citrus County Street Team is a group of prevention partners from several agencies and organizations who are committed to youth prevention in Citrus County.  While focused on teens mainly, the Street Team’s goals are to help educate both children and parents about ways they can stay healthy, happy, and safe.
