About

Choose Not To Use (CNTU) is a non-profit organization dedicated to preventing substance use among youth through education, awareness, and positive prevention initiatives. We empower K–12 students, families, and the Scott County community with the knowledge, resources, and support needed to make healthy choices and choose a substance-free future.

CNTU is officed out of the Scott County Attorney’s Office and led by County Attorney Ron Hocevar.

Additionally, CNTU is committed to reducing the financial burden substance abuse creates on users, law enforcement, schools, local government agencies, families and the environment in an effort to provide livable, healthy and safe communities for the citizens of Scott County.
