The Collaborative actively promotes healthy communities and substance-free youth through education, programming, outreach, resource development, environmental strategies, policy influence and mission-driven partnerships. The Collaborative provides fiscal mentorship and risk-management support to three other local nonprofit prevention organizations. Recognized by the state as experts in our field, we’ve also been tasked with steering the Prevention Lead Region 4. Through this funding, we’re providing technical assistance to other nonprofit organizations throughout southern Vermont.
