Alliance for Safe Kids

The Alliance for Safe Kids (ASK) is a non-profit organization based in Yorktown Heights, New York. Founded in 2002, ASK was incorporated in 2006 as a charitable organization dedicated to promoting awareness and prevention of substance use and other harmful behaviors among youth. ASK is a small organization with fewer than 5 employees. ASK's mission is to empower youth and families to make healthy decisions. They achieve this by providing information and resources on substance abuse prevention, while encouraging family involvement and education. Their collaborative approach brings together a diverse range of stakeholders including parents, teenagers, educators, law enforcement, government officials, medical professionals, businesses, faith leaders, and civic groups. ASK distinguishes itself through its comprehensive community-based approach. By uniting various sectors of the Yorktown Heights community, they create a strong safety net for young people, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to navigate challenges and make positive choices.
