IPS South Bay

IPS South Bay The project works closely with community groups to advance prevention policy.

SOUTH BAY COMMUNITY CHANGE PROJECT


This project uses the IPS Approach to change conditions that contribute to alcohol and other drug abuse and thereby enhance quality of life in the southwestern region of San Diego County. These include the “Yes We Can” group that is working to curb youth access to alcohol at Sleep Train Amphitheatre, a major entertainment venue in the City of Chula Vista andth

e “Safety First” community group, which is concerned about problematic bars causing crime and disorder in local neighborhoods. The project also sponsors a local youth group, the South Bay Youth 4 Change, which has worked extensively with law enforcement on shoulder tap operations, DUI checkpoints, and minor decoy operations.Recent accomplishments include passing a Responsible Beverage Service ordinance for the city of Chula Vista,updating a Social Host ordinance in the city of Imperial Beach, and preventing liquor sales at a youth-oriented movie theatre in National City.

We honor Juneteenth — a day of liberation, reflection, and resilience.

On June 19, 1865, over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, the last enslaved Black Americans in Galveston, Texas, finally received word of their freedom.

Juneteenth is not just history — it’s a reminder that freedom and justice must be actively protected and pursued. Let us listen, learn, and continue to uplift Black voices, stories, and futures.
