In this episode of the Safe Yakima Prevention Connection, our host Marisol Esparza talks with Annaka, a senior at Eisenhower High School and Vice President of Spark Club. Annaka shares how staying involved in school, sports, and prevention work has helped her build confidence, avoid peer pressure, and grow as a leader. She highlights how Spark Club creates a supportive, substance-free environment through outreach, education, and student-led advocacy. The conversation covers what motivates students to get involved, how to make prevention more appealing, and the vital role adults play in supporting youth. Whether you're a student, educator, or community member, this episode offers insight into how youth leadership drives lasting change. Spark Club meets Mondays at 1:45 PM and Tuesdays at 2:45 PM in Room 326 at Eisenhower High School. Learn more at www.safeyakimavalley.org or follow Safe Yakima Valley on Facebook and Instagram.
