In February, Shelley Brown, Michele Robinette, Katie Wolf, Barbara Adams Marin, and staff from PreventionFirst! attended the 4-day training in Washington, D.C. One of the highlights of the trip was meeting with Representative Greg Landsman, his staff, and other coalitions in the greater Cincinnati area to discuss prevention work in Ohio.
NEW! Adult Prevention Committee formed
Faith-based Committee Update
The committee is growing and already feeling the connection to the community in so many ways! On 6/24/23 the group will be partering with churches in Franklin to offer a community Pop-Up Prevention from 12:00-4:00 p.m. There will be food, games, a bouncy house, and so much more. On 10/6/23 the group will be hosting a Pop-Up Prevention event for youth at Rivers Crossing Church in Mason from 6:00-9:00 p.m. Volunteers are needed for both of these events! Got to the Coalition website and click on Events to sign up.
The committee meets quarterly, more often as necessary. The next meeting will be held at Rivers Crossing Church in Mason on 4/24/23 @ 11:30 a.m. The committee would love to have more members! Please consider joining in this exciting opportunity to make a difference in our community from a faith-based lens. For more information, contact Chair, Joel Jacobs at joel@buildyourfaith.org.
Executive Committee Update
Nominations will be made at the May meeting on 5/4/23, with voting being held at the June meeting on 6/1/23. Please consider joining the committee, as these positions are necessary to complete the work of the grant. Meetings are held once a month.
Thank You, Charlie, for your dedication to this committee and the Coalition!
