Welcome to Duxbury FACTS
The Duxbury FACTS coalition is made up of adult and teen volunteers providing a multi-pronged approach to address issues impacting youth health and wellness ranging from drug and alcohol prevention and treatment to suicide prevention and mental health promotion.
We are a community resource for mental health and alcohol and substance misuse. Our team works closely with the Duxbury Police Department Crisis Intervention Team, the Duxbury Public Schools, Duxbury Student Union and The Parent Connection to develop effective programs that fulfill our mission. Learn more about our 2018 – 2019 initiatives focused on mental wellness.

Take the “Wait Until 8th” Pledge!
Citing concerns about social and relational impact, mental health concerns and exposure to mature content, the “Wait Until 8th” campaign suggests that parents consider a basic phone as an alternative to a smartphone for younger children and as a way to diffuse peer pressure around smartphones.
