MORE ABOUT THE NEVADA COUNTY METH ACTION TEAM
  • In 2007-2008 Nevada County Behavioral Health/Friday Night Live, through funding from California State Drug and Alcohol programs, was one of ten counties which received a grant to establish a youth based community response to methamphetamine issues in Nevada County.
  • Our goal was to change community norms, policies, and/or laws using policy and media strategies.
  • The task force was made up of 60% youth, ages 16-25, working with adult allies.
  • Why the name, UNZIP?   One of the many slang names for meth is zip. Our main goal was to address the meth problem with the goal to create a community effort to UNZIP the County of Nevada.
  • Our goal was to change community norms, policies, and/or laws using policy and media strategies.
  • This ongoing website is a response to a need for access to reliable information about methamphetamine and resources for prevention and help.
