Lee’s Summit CARES Offers Parenting Training Opportunities to the Business Community.
Why are parenting classes considered a prevention resource?
A parenting class provides training, education, resources, and tools for area businesses to create a better line of communication, a stronger bond, and help get families talking about issues. As an educational tool, the parenting class is identified as a Primary Prevention Strategy.
- This class can be delivered once or on a scheduled recurring basis.
- They can be done in your office or a virtual classroom.
- They can be scheduled as a Lunch & Learn or at another time of day that might work for your office.

Alcohol Retailer Training
Lee’s Summit CARES Provides Resources and Training for Businesses Who Sell Alcohol.
As a way to reduce underage drinking, we coordinate with Lee’s Summit Police Department to help connect local retailers with training to help keep employees and front-line workers informed. Alcohol Retailer Training is a program provided to Lee’s Summit merchants that will assist your employees in selling and serving alcohol per the dictates of state statutes. This is a 45 min training session. A certificate of completion is provided after the training.
Alcohol Beverage Retailers (bars, restaurants, cafes, liquor grocery, and convenience stores) are key in preventing youth access to alcohol.
