Coalitions
Coalitions form when different sectors of a community work together to achieve mutual goals. Throughout the United States, thousands of coalitions have developed to create change and opportunities that promote health and wellness at the community level. Strong coalitions bring people together, focus on a community problem, build capacity and expand resources, and achieve better results than a single group or agency could do alone.
Our coalitions are made up of various community partners including parents, youth, schools, law enforcement, health care providers, local industry, and more.
