I live in Dardanelle, Arkansas, a town that has a population of approximately 5,000 people. It is a very poor population that belongs in Yell County, Arkansas. This town has very impressive test scores among our students. However, as with every area, there is a drug problem. I am a student of EAST lab. EAST lab allows students to work on community projects. I decided to create a project in which I would be working with the Yell County Drug coalition to help prevent drug abuse. I immediately devoted myself to this project, and realized I could make a difference in my area.
