"SODA" stands for "Students OK Without
Drugs or
Alcohol." and is the youth sub-group of the
VCC (Valley Community Coalition). SODA
is a group of Valley Community School students in grades 7-12 who
are choosing not to participate in underage alcohol and drug use.
The VCC reaches out to the Clermont, Elgin, Wadena, Iowa and
surrounding areas.
Members support their peers by encouraging and promoting a safe,
healthy, tobacco, drug, and alcohol free lifestyle.
SODA members are asked to make a commitment to being drug-free by
completing and signing a
SODA Pledge
Form once per school year.
Anyone in grades 7-12 who attends Valley Community Schools can join
SODA. There are no membership fees, just the requirement to
stay in good membership status with the group by attending monthly
meetings and activities sponsored by SODA.
If the SODA group of the VCC appeals to you, consider chaperoning
a Fun Night!
SODA is funded by a Drug-Free Communities
Grant that is administered by:
Helping Services for Northeast
