Miss Virginia Carlehr Swanson Partners to Teach Students About Making Healthy Choices

Miss Virginia Carlehr Swanson is educating elementary school students about the risks of alcohol and other drug use during the Virginia ABC Miss Virginia School Tour program.

“Virginia ABC and Miss Virginia have a long history of working together to educate Virginia’s youth about the importance of making healthy choices,” Virginia ABC CEO Dale Farino said. “We’re excited for Carlehr’s Miss Virginia tour and continuing this successful partnership.”

Last year’s Miss Virginia, Katie Rose, visited 64 elementary schools reaching 18,105 students promoting healthy decision making and leadership. Funded by a $17,500 ABC grant, there are in-person and virtual program options.
