We are a partnership of community agencies and individuals working together to foster an atmosphere where children feel safe, secure, and included. Since 1999, the Coalition has been providing programs and resources to build assets in our children, our families, and our community, to help reduce stress, alcohol use, drug use, violence, and other risky behavior among youth. We are increasing and strengthening our Coalition through public meetings, an active central steering committee, an extended advisory committee, bringing in additional sponsors from area organizations, and dedicated community volunteers.
