Letter to the Editor: Missing Hardison

We have lost a real advocate for keeping our youth safe and drug free. Cliff Hardison was a member of the board of directors for the Unified Prevention Coalition of Fairfax County, and he was committed to working with youth and the community in efforts to discourage and prevent underage alcohol and binge drinking, and marijuana and prescription drug abuse.

Our UPC board will be considering an appropriate way to honor Cliff’s memory.
