Eighty students gathered from Northern Manitoba High Schools were invited to the Soaring Eagles Conference. Our hopes are to give these students valuable tools and resources to go back to their communities as leaders and mentors, armed with a gained knowledge of drug awareness, to help them and their peers to make good choices.
