Catherine Weber is a visual artist and poet. She has explored many mediums and produced a great deal of work that includes photography, sewn textile art, bees wax, acrylic, printmaking and, perhaps most prominently, wood.

Public Notice from Department of Youth and Family Services: Enjoy Prom & Graduation Season
Enjoy Prom& Graduation Season
But remember, this can be both a wonderful time of year, as
well as a time of increased risk for teens. In fact, the highest
risk of first-time alcohol use occurs in the Prom& Graduation
season.
Here are some ways to keep your family safe:
• Talk openly about substance use with your teen. Be clear
that you do not want your teen to use alcohol or other
drugs. Talk about ways to have fun without drinking or
using drugs.
