Teens for Healthy Youth Accept Town of Bluffton National Impaired and Distracted Driving Proclamation on Behalf of LowCountry Alliance for Healthy Youth (LCAHY)

At the Bluffton Town Council Meeting on Tuesday, December 10th, 2024, Teens for Healthy Youth (THY) Members, Aviana Stevens and Mauricio Macias, accepted the National Impaired and Distracted Driving Prevention Month Proclamation issued by Mayor Larry Toomer on behalf of LCAHY.  The proclamation creates an awareness of the increase in drunk, drugged, and distracted driving during the holiday season and encourages the community to make positive choices year-round by refraining from distracted and impaired driving. See the Proclamation below. To watch Mayor Toomer issue the Proclamation click here. To view THY accept the Proclamation on behalf of LCAHY click here.


During December, THY members at Hilton Head Island High School promoted safe and distracted-free driving by making large posters with LCAHY’s 3D Holiday Prevention Campaign. See their large posters below. LCAHY was founded in 2012 as a result of a car crash involving impaired teens. LCAHY and its youth coalition, THY, work year-round to discourage drunk, drugged, and distracted driving in their communities. Accepting Proclamations at Town Council Meetings is an activity in LCAHY’s 12-Month Action Plan Under Strategy 7, Modify or Change Policy, of the Seven Strategies of Community-Level Change.
