Kathy Marty, S.A.F.E.

Our coalition is a member of this organization, which is a national membership organization representing coalitions working to make America's communities safe, healthy, and drug-free. It is also committed to strengthening the coalition field through training and technical assistance, conferences, and special events, media strategies and marketing initiatives. In February 2007, during the CADCA Forum in Washington D .C., our coalition was presented with a graduate certificate for successful completion of the essential elements of the year-long CADCA's National Coalition Academy.
Our coalition is a member of this organization and its mission is to support and enhance the capacity of coalitions in their substance abuse prevention and positive youth development efforts. The Alliance is a program of the WI Department of Health Services, Bureau of Prevention, Treatment and Recovery (BPTR). Over 100 local coalitions, including the S.A.F.E. Grant County Coalition, are members of the Alliance. In order to implement its mission, in July 2007, the Alliance for WI Youth State Office initiated the development of Regional Prevention Centers to provide an organizational structure to accomplish mutual prevention priorities and projects. The Southern Regional Alliance for Wisconsin Youth covers our region and has "alcohol-free youth" as its specific vision.
Our coalition is a member of this organization, which is a statewide (Wisconsin) membership association of individuals and organizations working together to assure human and financial resources for prevention and wellness.
