This is not how your story ends, this is just the beginning.

This is not how your story ends, this is just the beginning. This is not how your story ends, this is just the beginning. This is not how your story ends, this is just the beginning. This is not how your story ends, this is just the beginning.

Choose Your Story is an initiative dedicated to encouraging positive choices rather than substance use. Prevention involves more than simply refusing drugs and alcohol; we aim to equip teens with the necessary tools, facts, and inspiration to make informed decisions and cultivate a positive lifestyle. Our focus is on guiding teens in a way that emphasizes positivity, optimism, and resilience. When you view your life experiences through a more positive lens, emphasizing the aspects of hope and happiness in your personal stories,  you empower yourself to walk a healthier and more fulfilling path.


In 2024, we began offering a once-a-month FREE teen gathering. With the help of Escambia Children's Trust, we now have the opportunity to expand this program, specifically during summer and holiday breaks!


Follow us on FB and IG @hopeabovefear to stay in touch and to see when and what our next gathering will be. Check out what we've done in the past by clicking the button below.

Your choices matter

We've created a list of things to do around town.  There's a little bit of something for everyone. 


We'd love to hear from you! If you don't see anything you're interested in, let us know. If you have a favorite place around town that isn't listed, send us a message. We'd be happy to add it to the list.

Please reach out if you are interested in taking a class, starting lessons, or attending your first... you're not alone.
